Physical Education

At Shears Green Junior School we believe that physical education provides a vital and unique contribution to the physical and emotional health development of each pupil.

Our goal is to provide a wide range of activities aimed at promoting a healthy lifestyle and developing skills and enjoyment in games, gymnastics, dance, athletics, swimming and outdoor pursuits.

The programmes of study are also aimed at developing an understanding of the need for safety, develop co-ordination, self-confidence, co-operation and enjoyment.

The school is very fortunate in having its own indoor, heated swimming pool which is used throughout the year.

During lessons, swimming hats are to be worn by boys and girls.
