At Key Stage 4, students must complete a unit of Health-related fitness, then an option system operates which allows students to choose the other activities they would like to follow from a short list.

Students will be given an opportunity to get active and work with their peers in activities of their choice. Students will be encouraged to demonstrate coaching, officiating and captain qualities. They will be guided to use leadership qualities when working as part of a team and respond to the strengths and weaknesses of those they are working with, with the intention of students taking these skills in to working life. Sportsmanship should be visible in all lessons with students abiding by rules being humble in victory and gracious in defeat. We attempt to increase student’s self-confidence and provide an inclusive learning environment where all students are able to make good progress, whilst feeling comfortable to make mistakes and build resilience. By listening to our student voice and most current international research we have selected sports for our curriculum we feel are relevant to the needs and desires of our students.

Activities run for 6 weeks, after which, students must opt for another activity.
