PE @ Springwood Junior Academy

Welcome to the Physical Education (PE) page for Springwood Junior Academy. We are extremely lucky to have a PE specialist who delivers all of our PE lessons, clubs and provides countless sporting opportunities for our children, Miss Smith.

Every pupil within the academy will access PE and will experience a multitude of sports during their time at Springwood. The sports that will be covered are: football, tag rugby, basketball, netball, dance, gymnastics, tennis, athletics, rounders, cricket, orienteering and fitness, while also progressing through the fundamental skills throughout each year group.

During their time at Springwood, the pupils will also be able to join academy sports teams, a wide variety of after-school clubs, bikeability events, swimming and an annual sports day. This is brilliant for young people to experience, so they can hopefully access a sporting habit for life.

The ACET Long Term Planning outlines the sports each year group will take part in and the skills they will learn. Across the academic year, there are at least two after-school sports clubs each half-term. These clubs cover a wide range of sports such as dance, which enables us to provide dance evenings for parents, football, tennis, orienteering etc.

Time is provided within the curriculum for pupils and classes to attend Rotherham School Games competitions, ACET competitions, competitions that we run ourselves and individual fixtures.Miss Smith, our PE lead, oversees the organisation and development of these events. 

PE Kit

All pupils should have their PE kit in school for all lessons. Hair needs to be tied up, correct footwear worn and earrings need to be taped up.
