We are pleased to announce that the Sport and Wellbeing Faculty has scooped a top award from The Association of Physical Education (afPE). The external assessment panel has awarded our school the highest grade, Quality Mark – Distinction, for "demonstrating outstanding commitment to improvement in Physical Education, School Sport and Physical Activity".
The panel highlighted the below additional reasons for the award:
-
The outstanding leadership of the subject leader, well supported by SLT and Governors, has developed a collaborative vision for how PESSPA will continue to improve.
-
The provision within, across and beyond the school really does meet the needs of all its students who contribute significantly to review and development.
-
Programmes and innovations are driven by a forward-thinking subject leader, dynamic, hardworking PE department and numerous other inspirational school staff, together with eager and enthusiastic students.
As a result, the school will receive a certificate, and listed on the ‘afPE Quality Mark’ webpage. The school has also been listed as a high-quality provider of physical education with The Department for Education (DfE).
A big thank you to all our students and parents for their determination, commitment and support.
