Welcome to PGS Sport!

We are very proud of our sporting history at PGS, yet we are continually driven to maximise (inspire, nurture, challenge) the capabilities and experiences of all pupils through sport / physical activity so that they may flourish to their highest potential.

In practical terms, we are hoping to develop four major positive outcomes:

Enable high sporting/athletic performance levels during and beyond PGS.

Promote a lifelong healthy and active lifestyle

Develop good human beings who demonstrate the traits of the PGS Core - curiosity, creativity, commitment, courage, compassion and collaboration

Embed a sense of belonging and attachment to the PGS community.

All pupils in Years 7-11 have a timetabled Games lesson (double) and PE lesson (single) per week.
