Physical Education

The Physical Education department at St John Fisher School contains seven fully qualified PE teachers. With good indoor and outdoor facilities the department is able to offer a full range of opportunities for students.

All students in Years 7 and 13 receive two hours of timetabled Physical Education per week. Those opting to study an examination course receive a good deal more time allocated on their timetable. A full range of examination courses are available. Students can study GCSE Physical Education, A Level Sport Studies and BTEC Sports. We will be introducing BTEC Sport Level 2 in the September 2010. The Community Sports Leader (Level 2) Award is also an option for Year 10 – 13 students in core PE lessons.

The departmnent proives an extensive Extra-Curricular programme and works with outside agencies such as Charlton Athletic Football Team to provide a programme to support all levels of athletic ability. A football trip to Milan in conjunction with AC Milan Football team takes place each year.
