Learn With Us In Our
BTEC Introductory In Sport

Our PE curriculum is designed to shape happy, confident young people who develop a love for sporting activity throughout their secondary career. We strive to develop key skills that will not only be useful for sport but also life. Developing confident, resilient and aspirational young people is paramount to the ethos of our department.
We want our students to enjoy physical activity, whether as an athlete, coach or official, and have high aspirations to achieving and maintaining a healthy active lifestyle as well as achieving their own personal best.

Our curriculum is designed to underpin our school values of:

Teachers have high expectations of pupils; pupils rise to this challenge.

Respect

Our broad curriculum incorporates a range of sports from our multi-cultural school community.

Our lessons offer all students with opportunities to excel in areas and support peers in their own development.

Through our lessons, we encourage mutual respect and self-respect, meaning students are always being the best that they can be.

High Aspirations

We strive to push all students to achieve their personal best, and demonstrate the importance of correct technique in order to master skill and fulfil their
personal goals.

We want our students to recognise the importance of having high aspirations and have linked many areas of the curriculum to a variety of professionals that all rely on sport in order to encourage this.

We aim to bring in experts from different sporting areas to share their experience and achievements with students, and ultimately inspire our students to achieve their potential.

Confidence

Our teachers use lots of different formats of retrieval practice which develops students’ knowledge, understanding and performance in all areas, and encourage repetitive performance to help build confidence.

We encourage all students to ask questions and provide a safe environment for all to get it wrong before they continue to practise.

Lessons build on one another to ensure that a wide range of skills and techniques are mastered and confidently utilised.
