We regard physical activity as vital to the holistic development of young people, fostering their physical, social and emotional health. The benefits of sport reach beyond the impact on physical well-being and the value of the educational benefits of sport should not be under-estimated.

 

Sport provides the perfect platform for pupils to find self confidence, build self-esteem, enhance their teamwork abilities and help their motivation capabilities. Picking up these essential characteristics then allows pupils to be a lot more confidence in other academic subjects. Sport allows pupils to integrate and get to know each other, an opportunity which is few and far between during science, maths and English lessons.

 

A strong blend of sport with different academic subjects provides a balanced curriculum which benefits pupils in the long term.
