Why we teach Physical Education at Harris Academy Purley
Physical activity is a lifelong skill and habit that will benefit our students through their academic years and in later life. Throughout a student’s time at Harris Academy Purley, we aim to teach our students a range of sports and skills that they will be able to develop and apply in a variety of situations. These are not only practical skills, but soft skills such as communication and leadership skills which will benefit our students in a multitude of ways. Not only will students get the opportunity to develop their skills they will be learning the importance of physical activity for their physical, emotional and social health.
