Physical Education & School Sport

BSB recognises that individual students bring differing abilities, levels of confidence and qualities to their PE lessons and they learn in a variety of ways. PE is an integral part of learning and the curriculum. Our PE programme caters for all students where we aim to provide a very high standard of learning during all lessons.
