Sport
Students are provided with the opportunity to take part in a number of different activities through lessons and extra curricular sessions. They will have one triple lesson and one single lesson a week throughout the year.
Lessons are based around participation, enjoyment and the development of skills. Students are encouraged to maintain a good level of personal fitness. Those who show a high level of ability in any activity are encouraged to join local clubs and trial at County level.
The course is completely practical; basic skills are reinforced and tactical play in game situations is taught.
