Our aim at Valley Road School is to provide the opportunity for our children to safely experience a range of sporting activities for their fun and enjoyment. Through carefully planned PE and sports activities we aim to ensure that all children are happy and enjoy PE, thus raising participation levels both in and out of school and therefore in turn, promoting healthy lifestyles.

We strive to provide high-quality PE and sports teaching in both curriculum and after school clubs. We aim to ensure that within their own level of ability all children can achieve and experience success, thereby enabling them to reach their full potential.

We value the benefits of PE and sport to build children’s self-confidence, esteem and self-worth which is character-building and essential for our pupil’s development. We aim to teach children the skills necessary when taking part in a variety of different sports and how this can be transferred in other subjects across the curriculum, so all children become more active as this will support progress in all other subjects.
