At Chantry Middle School, we recognise the contribution of Physical Education and Sport to the health and well- being of our students. We believe that a personalised and varied Physical Education curriculum and extra curricular opportunities have a positive impact on other areas in school such as attitude, concentration, behaviour and academic achievement.


In the summer of 2019 we achieved the School Games
Gold Award which demonstrates our commitment to ensuring high quality Physical Education and developing both competitive sports and healthy activity.

Our Primary School Sport Funding enables us to continue to extend our provision through employing additional sports professionals, entering into more sports competitions and allowing all staff to access new resources and training to aid in the delivery of high quality Physical Education .

This is awarded for PE provision in the following ways:

  •  Increasing Engagement in School Games
  • Provide all students with two hours of timetabled Physical Education per week (within the curriculum only) and have extra curriculum provision inclusive of physical activity in addition to this – applicable to years 3-11 only.
  • The schools provides a large variety of sports to ensure a fun and thorough PE learning experience for pupils.
  • Engage at least 50% of pupils (20% for special schools/PRUs) in extracurricular sporting and physical activity every week – applicable to years 3-11 only.
  • Over the course of the academic year, have targeted provision for those least active young people in your school and a minimum take up of at least 15% from those identified as least active at the start of the academic year. This take up needs to be sustained over a term – applicable to years 3-11 only.
  • The school provides this through free clubs delivered by school staff and also specialist clubs which pupils pay for and have access to specialist coaching.
  • Developing Competitive Opportunities
  • Use the School Games formats to provide the opportunity for both boys and girls to take part in the appropriate level of competition.
