Student-Led PE Lessons for End of Term!

In an exciting twist to our end-of-term student voice meeting, the students have taken charge of planning the final PE lesson of the term! Each class has two representatives who, with guidance from our senior house and school captains, worked together to decide the games and sports they wanted to play.

The class representatives took the initiative to survey their classmates, ensuring everyone’s voice was heard. They then made an executive decision on what activities to include in the lesson. Students were responsible for organising a warm-up, selecting a sport to focus on, planning a cool-down, and deciding on the necessary equipment.

It was an energetic and inspiring meeting, with everyone thrilled to take control and shape their final PE lesson of the term!
