PE and Sport at Wolston St Margaret’s C of E Primary School

PE and Sport play a vital role in the life of Wolston St Margaret’s C of E Primary School. We believe that physical education and sport contribute significantly to the holistic development of young people. Through participation in PE and sport, pupils learn key values such as teamwork, resilience, fair play and respect for themselves and others.

There is strong evidence that regular physical activity benefits children’s physical health, growth, and development, while also supporting mental wellbeing. Sport provides a positive environment for pupils to learn how to manage competition and cope with both success and setbacks.
