At Potley Hill, we are passionate about sports. Our vision is for all children to be engaged in high quality physical activity, whilst ensuring that they know and understand the benefits of keeping healthy. We strive to ignite enthusiasm in all our children to be regularly active, physically confident and to develop a passion for exercise outside of the school day. Through physical activity, we aim to improve health and well-being, to promote active participation and develop high self-esteem and high expectations within every child. As a school, we endeavour to inspire all pupils to succeed and excel in competitive sports and other physically demanding activities, embedding values such as: communication, team work, respect, resilience, ambition and attitude.

The government provides additional funding to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in schools. This funding is provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport. The funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.

Swimming

In Key Stage 2, children have swimming lessons at St Neots Preparatory School swimming pool. These lessons are taught by qualified swimming teachers and please see our most recent swimming results below.
