Nottingham Secondary Academy

PE

What do we do? Why do we do it?

At the Nottingham Academy we offer an extensive and inclusive Physical Education curriculum that promotes a healthy, active lifestyle. Pupils are exposed to both a Core PE and academic curriculum that strives to inspire and motivate all to believe that they can achieve success at the Academy.

Physical Education is at the heart of the Academy and plays an important role in developing our pupils’ character and life skills. This is achieved through the integration of the Respect Values in all aspects of the Physical Education curriculum. We aim to support pupils in making positive choices both at the Academy and in their wider community.

Pupils have further access to a range of physical activities and sporting opportunities as part of an extensive extra-curricular programme. These activities support pupils to participate either competitively or for fun and enjoyment.

As a Department we recognise the importance of Physical Education and the pivotal role it can have on the personal and social wellbeing of our pupils. This is integral to all that we do and the reasons why we are driven to ensure all pupils at the Nottingham Academy have a positive experience of Physical Education and school Sport.

The ultimate aim is to ensure all pupils develop a positive attitude towards lifelong participation in physical activity.
