Sport
Although Priory Academy has a well-deserved
reputation for success in school sports
competitions, our main aim is to inspire all
students with a life-long interest in sport at all
levels of ability.
For this reason, we offer an excitingly diverse range
of activities both in lessons and as extra-curricular
opportunities ranging from the more usual team and
individual sports through to health and fitness
programmes, there really is something to suit
everyone!
We’re excited to introduce our brand-new school
gym, equipped with high-quality, commercial-grade
fitness equipment. The gym offers pupils an excellent
opportunity to stay active and healthy while providing
an alternative to traditional, games-based sports
clubs. It’s a fantastic resource for our GCSE PE
students, helping them develop a deeper
understanding of key elements of their course
through hands-on experience and practical
application.
Coupled with the obvious well-being benefit that
participation in any physical activity brings, we
passionately believe that our students will develop a
sense of aspiration, a determination to succeed and
a tremendous spirit of camaraderie. We ensure that
sport is valued not only in terms of successful
outcomes but also for the lessons of teamwork and
self-motivation that it facilitates.
