What is our vision?
Here at Ansdell Primary School , we value the sporting potential of each and every child and are committed to providing a range of sports and opportunities to be physically active. Increasing participation is a school focus and as a result, the number of pupils participating in sport is on the rise. We recognise the value of competitive sports and see inter-school activities as an opportunity for Gifted and Talented children to showcase and develop their talents. We have daily lunchtime sports, including 15 minutes per day Fundamental Movement Skills, for our children in EYFS. We have developed a range of intra-school competitions and events and enjoy a full week of sports and activities during our Wellbeing Week. We value outdoor adventurous activities and every child benefits from our Ansdell Adventure Passport. Through this programme, every pupil has many opportunities to access paddle sports, climbing, hiking and outdoor play and learning. Our commitment is one which utilises the breadth of school sport to develop excitement, raise academic attainment, and encourage the holistic development of each and every pupil.
