Curriculum Intent:
Physical Education is an integral part of the curriculum at The Burgate School and Sixth Form Centre. Physical Education promotes the school motto, “Learning for Life” in preparing students to be active and healthy after they leave school. We try to encourage students to find activities which they enjoy and which they can continue to participate in into their adulthood.
