PE and Sport

At Wolverley Sebright, we know that PE and Sport is an integral part of our school curriculum. Physical Education and the promotion of Healthy Minds and Healthy Bodies inspires all pupils to succeed and excel in physically- demanding activities and helps all our pupils to become confident in a way which supports their fitness and health. 

We provide outstanding Physical Education through high quality teaching and an exceptional curriculum. Our pupils are encouraged to achieve their personal best at all times and are challenged to succeed and excel in Physical Education and school sport. 

All our pupils take part in at least 30 minutes of daily physical activity through PE lessons, lunchtimes and extra-curricular activities.

We also believe that our pupils should have the opportunity to attend and compete in festival or competition to learn new skills and gain experience. Our pupils also compete in the inter- house competitions to build and develop our Sports Values which include: determination, fairness, honesty, team work and respect. 

Each week, Sport Stars of the Week are celebrated during our whole school celebration assembly (currently virtual). Pupils are selected from Early Years, KS1 and KS2, highlighting aspects of their learning related to the Sports Values. Well done to everyone selected to receive a certificate.

Sports Ministers

As a member of our school Parliament, Freddie and Ed  (yr6) are our elected Sports Ministers for the current year. They will attend discussions, advise, help make decisions, oversee, and lead aspects of our PE and sport. They will also ensure that pupil voice is a high priority in our school.

Both Freddie and Ed have received training, through our School Sports Partnership (SSP) to lead our School Sport Organising Crew.
