Is competitive sport safe? (updated 27th April 2021)
Physical Education
The aim of PE at Yewtree is to develop children's skills in various sports and to enhance awareness of fitness, health and the body. We provide a wide range of activities including team games, dance, gym, athletics, outdoor and adventurous activities and swimming. These are taught in ways appropriate to the child and their individual ability.
At Yewtree we encourage and recognise children's participation in extra-curricular sporting activities and build upon children's strengths. Children are invited to participate in extra-curricular clubs and competitions when the opportunity arises.
The Sports Premium report for 2019 - 2020 can be found here
Swimming and Water Safety In particular, pupils should be taught to:
Please be aware that all PE and swimming lessons are compulsory. Children can only be excused if they produce a doctor's note or a letter from a parent/guardian.
We advise pupils to bring their PE kit to school every Monday and take it home for washing on Fridays.
For Health and Safety reasons stud ear rings and headscarves must be removed for PE and swimming lessons.
