VISION

All pupils leaving primary school are physically literate and with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.

OBJECTIVE

To achieve self-sustaining improvement in the quality of PE and sport in primary schools.

We would expect indicators of such improvement to include:

• the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity - kick-starting healthy active lifestyles
• the profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement
• increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
• broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
• increased participation in competitive sport

What is the Sainsbury’s School Games?

The Sainsbury’s School Games is a unique opportunity to motivate and inspire millions of young people across the country to take part in more competitive school sport.

The Games are made up of different levels of activity including competition in schools and between schools:

• Intra-school (Level 1) – sporting competition for all students in school through intra-school competition
• Inter-school (Level 2) – individuals and teams are selected to represent their schools in local inter-school competitions

Spirit of the Games – Values

The Sainsbury’s School Games is based around 6 key values. We encourage our children to follow these values, not only in sport, but in everything they do. 

The Spirit of the Games Values focus on personal excellence through competition. There are six values:

Honesty: With others and with yourself. Have the courage to do the right thing. Be truthful and promote fairness in every situation.

Teamwork
Treat everyone equally, support each other’s and work together to have fun and achieve. Celebrate each others’ success. Be a good friend and a positive team player in school, sport and life.

Respect
Treating others politely and with understanding. Accepting life’s ‘ups and downs’ with grace. Respect everyday, in everything you do and for everyone around you.

Self belief
You’ve got to believe to achieve. Have the self belief and confidence to succeed and reach your personal best.

Passion
Giving it 100%, putting your heart and soul into whatever you are doing and never giving up. Care about what you do and the people around you, and approach each opportunity with enthusiasm and positivity.

Determination
Keep going no matter what. Determination is about the journey you go on to push yourself and achieve your dreams. Have the mental strength and the self discipline to overcome obstacles, commit to your goals and keep working every day to become the very best you can be. Don’t hold back!
