At Montgomery Academy, we recognise the importance of PE and the role it has to play in promoting long term, healthy lifestyles and making a positive impact on physical, mental and social health. The intent of our PE curriculum is to provide students with high quality PE and sport provision, not only as a participant but in leadership roles such as a coach, official or choreographer. It is our vision for every child to succeed and achieve their potential as well as to lead physically active lifestyles beyond their years at secondary school. We strive to inspire our students through fun and engaging PE lessons that are enjoyable, challenging and accessible to all. We want our young people of Montgomery Academy to appreciate the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle. Through our teaching of PE, we will instil our core values and transferable life skills such as resilience and mutual respect as well as providing them with opportunities to take part in competitive sport through our extensive extra-curricular programme.
Our extensive extra-curricular programme is open to all of our students to attend on a competitive and social basis, which is run throughout the academic year and for those who wish to play competitively have further opportunities to represent the school locally, regionally and nationally in various sporting activities. The Montgomery PE Department have fantastic community club links, particularly with Blackpool FC, Fleetwood Town FC and Fylde Rugby Football Club, who offer their services, providing our students with an advanced level of knowledge and understanding for the given sporting activities. We also organise a number of sports visits, which are ran on an annual basis for educational and rewards purposes to celebrate our sporting successes beyond the classroom, which include outdoor and adventurous residentials, revision days with external providers and sports tour excursions to a European destination.
