At Ark Acton our goal is for students to leave with the knowledge and understanding of how to lead a healthy active lifestyle, both physically and mentally. Physical education offers opportunities to build character and develop values such as fairness, resilience and respect. It enables all students to explore their physical characteristics as well as learn about themselves and others as they face and overcome challenges. Beyond the core PE curriculum, we provide professional sports coaches every lunchtime and after school each day for students to do as much sport as they can. Students also have the opportunity to take part in interform competitions, external fixtures and sport for recreation through our extra-curricular programme.
