Our plan and vision for the future of sport at St.Gregory's

St. Gregory’s PE Department Vision

‘To create an enjoyable and productive working environment for both staff and pupils, where, together we strive to actively engage to learn and improve and where participation and achievement is measured, monitored and celebrated’.


 As a department, we aim to provide a challenging, disciplined and safe environment for high quality learning and teaching. Pupils should experience a balance of activities which has the necessary coherence and breadth to develop the Curriculum.
 Progression should be evident as the pupil passes through key stage 1 to 2 with an extended choice of activities to ensure the pupil is offered a stimulating and relevant school choice in PE.
 By the end of their physical education at St. Gregory’s the pupil should have developed a personal commitment to, and genuine passion for, maintaining their health and well-being into adult life.
