Rules & Guidelines

To help in the smooth running of the PE Department and for Students to gain maximum benefit from their PE lessons below are some Rules & Guidelines:

Always make sure you know what activity you are due to do.
Always ensure you have the correct clean and clearly labeled kit.
Ensure you can change from your College uniform into your PE kit in 4 minutes or less. (Year 7s practice at home!!).
Make sure you get to the correct location for your PE lesson quickly - all students must be changed and ready to go within 6 minutes (Year 7) from the end of the previous lesson (Reduced to 5 minutes from year 8).
Bring a towel to shower with (usually needed for Rugby).
Have a separate bag for indoor & outdoor kit and always store in lockers (NOT racks).
Do NOT buy expensive boots or trainers.
Ensure gum shields are moulded ready for use before the first lesson.

MEDICAL EXEMPTIONS:

Only students who a have letter or note from parents/guardians/health Centre may miss a PE lesson - however all students should still bring their PE kit to the lesson as they may be needed to umpire/coach etc. (Obviously this will depend upon medical condition) (Notes can be written in planners (in ink) but must be signed and a contact tel. number provided in case immediate clarification by PE staff is required.)
For ongoing medical conditions requiring a longer absence (more than 1 week’s lessons) from PE activities a full written explanation from a Doctor may be required.
