Sport

Sport plays a central part in life at our Academy, helping our pupils to stay fit and healthy.

At Ark Blake we provide every pupil with the opportunity to take part in a broad range of sports and physical activities that often go beyond the standard curriculum. We also look to give pupils a holistic understanding of how to lead a healthy active lifestyle. The PE department runs a rich after-school timetable, often with the chance for pupils to play competitively against other schools. The timetable changes every term to ensure a good mix of sports and activities over the course of the year, and as the academy grows, the number and variety of sessions will increase too.

Beyond our after-school timetable, we also look to take pupils on tour in the UK or Europe, as well as to visit professional sporting environments such as sporting offices (to understand business management) and stadiums. We are also always looking to invite athletes to the academy to share their experiences.
