Planning for the future

Going forward we feel that it is vital to continue to have a PE Specialist working in our school each week. The teaching is outstanding and will continue to be so with the support of our Specialist PE teacher. Key Stage Specialist teaching will be every half term with 3 sports festivals per annum. The opportunities for the children to access high quality PE lessons, festivals and after school clubs is invaluable. Accessing regular and supportive CPD will continue to upskill our staff members. Equipment will be enhanced to support the teaching and learning of outstanding PE.
