We encourage our children to have fun whilst learning the concepts of sport. Our curriculum is carefully planned to build on key skills and concepts over time allowing children to embed and develop their sporting knowledge and understanding.
Our skilled sports coaches plan and deliver the highest quality sports teaching, working together with our teaching team. We ensure that we meet the needs of all of our children from pre-school until the end of KS2 ensuring that our pupils are confident and ready to move on into key stage 3 at the end of their time in primary.
Enjoying challenge!
