Physical Education
The aim of Physical Education is to develop and enrich our students by teaching essential life skills through the exciting and challenging world of sport. All students will leave the Academy with a good knowledge of how to live a healthy, active lifestyle and will appreciate the value of physical activity and lifelong participation.
Through the PE and Health Curriculum we aim to develop the core values of our Academy so that every individual shows:
- Respect – for themselves, their peers, teachers, officials.
- Enthusiasm – when engaging in physical activity and sport. This should manifest itself in all aspects of life.
- Ambition – to strive to be the best they can be.
- Determination – to lead a healthy, active lifestyle. To overcome barriers and challenges. To achieve their very best.
- Confidence – to participate, perform and lead.
- Creativity – through their decision making, problem solving and use of strategies and tactics.
At KS4, the OCR Sports Studies course allows students to build on their acquired skills, knowledge and understanding through a mixture of theoretical and practical means.
