Robert Barclay Academy
Wellbeing
Our aim is to ensure students are fit, healthy and
take pride in their appearance, and consequently
strengthen their self-confidence and leadership
skills.
We also aim to encourage students to adopt healthy
lifestyles and to prosper from good habits in the future.
All students follow a programme of Physical Education
and Sport through to the end of Year 11 culminating in
one of the following qualifications: GCSE PE, BTEC PE,
GCSE Dance or BTEC Dance. In addition, many
students will also follow one of our various sports or
dance leadership programmes and carry out
significant work leading sport with younger students in
our local primary feeder schools
We also run regular sports tours for girls and boys to
allow students the opportunity to compete outside
their national environment. Our drive to develop healthy
lifestyles is enhanced further by our fitness suite and
our outstanding dance provision. We have a team of
dedicated and talented dance teachers and as a result
we are able to offer dance at both GCSE and A-Level.
“Students in the sixth form are positive role
models. They contribute well to the life of
the school. Students look out for younger
pupils.“
