Welcome to a busy, thriving Physical Education Department at SPH. The PE Department at St Philip Howard Catholic High School strives to develop and encourage all pupils to participate and to try their best in all aspects of Physical Education by offering a broad curriculum with engaging lessons. Throughout KS3 and KS4 each pupil has the opportunity to participate in a variety of team games/ individual based sports including football, badminton, rugby, netball, gymnastics, volleyball, athletics, rounders, cricket, table tennis, handball and basketball.

As a department we acknowledge the importance for pupils to extend their skill through extra-curricular activity and to be given the chance to represent their school in a variety of County cups and leagues as well as National competitions.

Our extra-curricular clubs have over 300 students participating a week and representing the school in successful teams across the year groups.

With theory lessons running in Year 7, 8 and 9 you’ll be ready for GCSE or BTEC PE and then have the option to continue this into A-Level or Lever 3 BTEC.
