Welcome to our page for P.E. and Sport!

 

Broadmead has achieved the Platinum Mark!

The School Games Mark is a Government led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success. 

Every year, schools can apply to be considered for bronze/silver/gold award marks from School Games. The School Games adjudicators, judge each school against stringent criteria before determining the suitable award level. 

At Broadmead, we have successfully achieved a Gold Award Mark for five consecutive years and this year we are delighted to have been awarded the highest level, Platinum Mark Award. 

This is no mean feat, as a Platinum Mark is only awarded to a handful of schools nationwide, who have consistently achieved a Gold Mark in previous years and have shown consistent dedication to sport and activity in their region.

We are immensely proud of all our children and staff for their continued dedication to all aspects of school sport and exercise.

 

Curriculum Intent

At Broadmead, we aim to inspire all children to develop a love of physical activity and sport.

Our school values, along with our sporting values are embedded within our P.E. lessons, through which we aim to nurture and develop confident, resilient children who will strive for their personal best. Through conversations and listening to our children we will provide them with a range of activities and clubs.

We want to aid our children in obtaining the values and skills to celebrate and respect the success of others, as well as modestly celebrating their own successes and achievements.

We strive to educate both our children and our families to develop a greater understanding on how to live a healthy lifestyle and make healthy choices.

We are dedicated to ensuring healthy minds, as well as bodies, and will continue to support our children’s wellbeing. We have strong links with local clubs and partnerships within our community and surrounding area.

We aim to ensure that our delivery of physical education allows children to have the skills and mindset to leave our school with the capabilities to be successful in their sporting challenges and active lifestyles at middle school and beyond.

 

We will have lots of exciting festivals to participate in this year. We will update our table when we have our new dates.
