Our ethos is pupil centred, underpinned by the desire to develop the students physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively. The department prides itself on high standards and expectations with the school having an excellent reputation throughout Aylesbury Vale and Buckinghamshire.
The curriculum is designed to provide a range of sporting experiences to the students developing their core skills and knowledge with a view to sparking an interest in the student, so they realise which is the best sport for them. Throughout Years 7-11 pupils are provided with with 2 hours of dedicated PE per week. In Sixth form we run both a recreational offer and a leadership route for our students.
The department’s commitment to extra-curricular activities is outstanding, ensuring pupils are offered an extensive and diverse range of activities. There is a well-balanced emphasis placed on both participation and performance, with large numbers regularly attending lunchtime and after- school clubs, as well as representative teams enjoying much success when entering local, regional and national competitions.
