PE Vision Statement

The PE Department aims to provide a broad and robust curriculum that acts as a vehicle for developing student wellbeing. We promote student engagement and set high expectations for all students. In doing this, we encourage our students to have high aspirations for themselves throughout their time at Pool Academy. 

We provide various opportunities to participate in sport and develop students' understanding of mental, social and physical wellbeing. Extra-curricular opportunities are provided throughout the year, across a wide range of sporting disciplines, such as hockey, girls' and boys' football, rounders and athletics.

Students take part in PE lessons throughout their school journey, following a “Head, Heart, Hands” assessment model in KS3 and a wellbeing programme in Years 10 and 11. VCERT PE is an option subject in Year 10.
