As an Engineering and Health Sciences speciality college, it is important to ensure physical education is a core element of everything we do for the health and wellbeing of all of our students. Physical Education at Engineering UTC Northern Lincolnshire complements the PSHE learning on wellness, overall health and mental health.

The Iron Foundation Trust (Previously Scunthorpe United Football Club Trust) deliver our PE curriculum, as well as extra-curricular on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

 

National Curriculum Aims for PE

A high-quality physical education curriculum inspires all children to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically-demanding activities.

It should provide opportunities for children to become physically confident in a way that supports their health and fitness. Opportunities to compete in sport and other activities build character and help to embed values such as fairness and respect.

As we have no outside sports area, sports take place inside the sports hall. Where exams are taking place, sports will move to the outside quad area for dodgeball, and skills type ball games.

Where we have poor weather, we will then move to the Skills Hub, where yoga, pilates and dance take place.

Year 9, 10 and 11 take part in the same sports each half term. The variation is within the learning ability, knowledge of the sport and overall performance.

Sixth form students do not have physical education as part of their engineering studies. It is important that all students have access to sports and the benefits this brings. We have built in time on the sixth form curriculums to take part in PE sessions as an extra-curricular session. These sessions are football/basketball with the PE coaches as a fun and relaxed sports lesson.
