Deddington has achieved the Platinum Sports Mark for the fifth year in a row!

The PE curriculum has been designed to support the National Curriculum through the provision of high-quality physical education which inspires all pupils to succeed and excel whilst being physically active. At Deddington, we have created a progressive, inclusive curriculum which builds on the basic skills needed for physical literacy (ability, balance, coordination) to become competent in a broad range of sports whilst engendering a healthy, active lifestyle.

By the time children leave Deddington, we want to ensure our pupils have become competent in the fundamental movement skills, thus leading to an increased ability to apply their skills in different physical activities and sports. We want to engender a healthy active lifestyle which can be sustained into a lifelong habit.

Sporting tournaments, festivals, visitors and sporting opportunities within the wider community enhance the individual experience in PESSPA, providing inspiration as well as inclusive and competitive opportunities to effectively develop skills, realise success and progress to a higher level of learning.

Pupils at Deddington Primary School enjoy a wide range of sporting events and competitions as well as access to many different after-school clubs, promoting healthy lifestyles, positive life skills and opportunities to develop their skills in a variety of sports.
