At Phoenix Primary School, sport plays a vital role in supporting children’s physical health, emotional wellbeing and personal development. Through a wide range of inclusive and competitive sporting opportunities, pupils learn to work as part of a team, persevere through challenge and develop confidence in themselves.

School sport helps children to build resilience by encouraging them to try new skills, cope with setbacks and celebrate progress. It also promotes kindness and respect, teaching pupils to support one another, show sportsmanship and value effort as much as success. Through representing their school, children develop responsibility and pride, while nurturing ambition as they strive to improve and achieve their personal best.
