In School

 At ESJ we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to participate and compete in sport at a level that suits them. Thus ensuring all children to develop their confidence and competence in PE and sport whilst nurturing a positive attitude to physical activity.

Much of Sport at ESJ is supported by the Sports premium. (Please see the link below for more details) 

We partner with Active Play for the many and varied a sports competitions we enter. Please keep an eye on our Newsletters for news of our recent sporting activities and successes! 

Children have two hours of dedicated PE each week as part of our curriculum.

This is further extended by the many after school clubs we run.  See the current list of after school clubs below. 

In addition, there are plenty of local sports clubs, please see the list below for more details, 

 

 

Monitoring of Swimming outcomes...

 

There are requirements for schools to report on swimming levels at the end of KS2.

 National Curriculum requirements for swimming and water safety:

  • Swim confidently, competently and proficiently over a distance of 25m.
  • Use a range of strokes effectively
  • Perform safe self -rescue in different water-based situations.

In 2024/25 we can report that 82% of the year 6 children met all 3 of the above criteria.
