At Cledford Primary & Nursery Academy, we aim for every child to be fit, healthy and physically confident.

We provide all children with opportunities to take part in sport and PE through engaging, high-quality teaching and learning experiences.

Our PE curriculum covers all areas of the national curriculum, including games, gymnastics, dance, outdoor activities and athletics.

PE Kit

All children should have their PE kit in school every day; we try to do as much physical activity as possible at Cledford and often have PE lessons that are additional to the timetable.  Pupils may also require their PE kit for drama or dance. 

Swimming

The children in year 3 children have the opportunity to participate in swimming lessons at a local swimming pool. They are encouraged to achieve different levels and awards. Mrs L Barnett is a fully qualified, experienced swimming teacher.

After-school Sports Clubs

We offer a variety of after-school sports clubs for children of all ages. 

Golden Mile

Classes regularly complete the 'Golden Mile' around the playground & fields of Cledford Primary & Nursery Academy. This is a fun way to encourage stamina and fitness amongst all the children.

Competitions

Each year, the school participates in several different sporting events with other local primary schools in Middlewich; these are often led by the sports leaders from Middlewich High School. The children are highly motivated and enthusiastic to represent Cledford Primary & Nursery Academy in these events. Our children are successful and demonstrate excellent sportsmanship.

Sport Funding

Primary schools receive government sports funding based on the number of pupils in years 1 - 6.

Schools must spend the funding to improve the quality of the PE and sport activities on offer to their pupils; schools are free to choose the best way to use the money.
