PE and School Sport

At St Mary’s, we give pupils the opportunities to experience a range of sports and activities so that every child can become confident and competent in a range of physical activities. Children are encouraged to enjoy both indoor and outdoor exercise, valuing the importance of a healthy active lifestyle.            

School Sports Partnerships

St Mary’s is linked with the Greenacre Sports Partnerships.  The teams from the Partnership support the teaching of PE within the school and also provide us with opportunities to participate in a variety of sporting events throughout the school year.

We receive access to:

• Teacher support with planning and delivering lessons
• Local inter-school sports competitions
• Sports Coordinator support for in-school events
• A variety of sports equipment from the loan store
• Curriculum planning and assessment resources
• Health and safety advice
• Links to local ‘club marked’ sports clubs
