Celebrating Our Success in Experiential Learning

We are thrilled to announce that our Physical Education department has been awarded the prestigious Best Experiential Learning award for our innovative new course. This recognition is a testament to our commitment to providing a holistic and student-centered approach to physical education, ensuring that we meet the diverse needs of our students.

Many Thanks Muddy Stilettos


A Holistic Approach to Physical Education

Our newly designed course aims to better address the holistic needs of our students by promoting physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Building on the strengths of our Multi Award Winning PE Curriculum, this course emphasizes student agency and self-direction. The non-linear nature of the course allows students to explore and engage with the material in ways that resonate with their individual learning styles and interests.

Celebrating Student Agency

One of the core principles of our new PE course is celebrating student agency. By incorporating a heavy self-directed element, we empower students to take control of their learning journey. This approach not only fosters independence and critical thinking but also helps students develop a lifelong love for physical activity and wellness.


Highly Commended in a Prestigious Category

We are beyond delighted to have been Highly Commended in such a prestigious and meaningful category. This accolade is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our PE department, who have tirelessly worked to create a course that truly meets the needs of our students. We are committed to continually adapting and evolving our curriculum to ensure we are providing the best possible education for our students.

Striving to Meet the Needs of a Fluid World

In today’s ever-changing world, it is essential that we remain responsive to the evolving needs of our students. We are privileged to be part of these young people’s journey, and we will continue to strive to meet their needs with innovative and forward-thinking approaches to physical education. Our goal is to equip our students with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive, both now and in the future.

Join Our Journey on Our Podcast

To further celebrate and share the success of our new course, we have launched a podcast that spans the journey of its development and reflects the embryonic nature of the course and its outcomes. We invite you to tune in and join us as we explore the exciting developments in our PE department and hear directly from the educators and students who are making it all possible.

We are incredibly proud of this achievement and look forward to continuing our work to provide exceptional educational experiences for our students. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey!
