PE - Years 7-9
Key Stage 3 (Y7-9)
The vision for the department is to provide a balanced and informed curriculum across all key stages in the school. We aim to create an enjoyable and productive working environment for both staff and pupils, where together we strive to actively engage to learn and improve. We ensure that participation and achievement is measured, monitored and celebrated.
As a department, we aim to provide a challenging, disciplined and safe environment for high quality learning and teaching. Pupils will experience a balance of activities which has the necessary coherence and breadth to develop the Curriculum. Progression should be evident as the student passes through key stage 3 to 5 with an extended choice of activities that ensure the student is offered a stimulating and relevant Curriculum offer in Health, Fitness and Wellbeing (HFWB). By the end of their HFWB education at Meadowhead, students should have developed a personal commitment to, and genuine passion for, maintaining their health and well-being into adult life.
All students will take part in a variety of activities throughout the year. They will have two PE lessons per week and take part in an activity for 7-8 weeks at a time.

Extra-curricular / enrichment
Extra Curricular is a very important part of HFWB and we encourage every student to join at least one after-school club. There are different clubs on every evening after school, ranging from Dance to 5-aside football. There is also the opportunity to represent the school in a wide variety of different activities.
