At Berkswich CE Primary School, we value PE greatly as a subject. We believe that PE is an essential part of a child's educational development. It provides children with a knowledge about their health, fitness and wellbeing throughout their lives. At Berkswich we believe that PE inspires every child across our school to participate and compete in a wide variety of engaging and challenging activities.
Platinum in School Games Award!
Our physical activity and school sport achievements have been recognised: we are delighted to announce that we have achieved Platinum in School Games Award for the 2023/24 academic year.
We have raised the profile of Physical Education at Berkswich this year by: increasing the number of clubs that we offer, involvement in all fixtures that we have been offered, taking part in National School Sport week and effectively training Sport Leaders to daily lead our active playtimes.
In response to our application Susie (Stafford SGO) said, "Berkswich CE Primary School is a fantastic example of a school that embodies the principles of 60 Active Minutes. They offer their children such a broad range of opportunities, there genuinely is 'something for everyone' at Berkswich. It has been great to see the PE Lead develop her subject over the past few years and the benefits that has brought the children in her school. Congratulations Berkswich!"
We are extremely proud of the children for their dedication towards all aspects of physical activity and school sport.
Well done, everyone and well done, Mrs Gartside-Bentley, our PE Lead!
