Physical Education
There are hurdles to overcome in sport and in life. Sport is a very valuable learning ground for how to live your life in the best possible way
Lynne Davies
Pupils will have the opportunity to participate in a range of different sporting activities which reflect the programmes of study laid down in the National Curriculum for Physical Education.
It is hoped that the curriculum offered helps to inspire pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities to the best of their ability. We provide opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness as well as learning a range of life-skills including the ability to work in a team, respect and fairness.

An extensive extra-curricular programme is also available providing opportunities to compete against local schools as well as acquiring more advanced skills.

KS4 Physical Education: Core
Physical education is taught as a core subject to all students in Year 10 and 11 but does not lead to a key stage 4 qualification. Lessons offer pupils the chance to develop and progress as well as to consolidate the skills they have learnt in key stage 3.
Pupils have access to a broad curriculum with the aim of instilling the importance of adopting a physically active lifestyle. As well as continuing some of the activities they covered in key stage 3, we also offer new sports such as trampolining and table tennis.
At Enfield County we encourage students to be competitive through Sports Days and interform competitions as well as providing the opportunity for pupils to participate in fixtures against local schools. We have an extensive array of fixtures in a variety of sports which allows us to target a wide range of interests.
