At Nicol Mere, we are proud of the high-quality Physical Education we offer and our strong commitment to ensuring every child has the opportunity to engage in a wide range of sporting experiences. We use our Primary PE and Sports Premium Funding effectively to support sustainable improvements in physical activity and wellbeing. As a result of our dedication, we have been awarded the prestigious Gold Standard School Games Mark, which recognises our commitment to school sport, physical education, and competitive opportunities for all pupils.

Our PE curriculum is designed not only to raise achievement but also to enhance children’s physical and mental wellbeing, while developing their moral and social skills through sport. We offer daily lunchtime and after-school sports clubs, with 135 children attending at least one club last academic year. Pupils regularly take part in intra- and inter-school competitions, many of which are hosted by Nicol Mere. Successes are celebrated through our school Facebook page, newsletters, and in our weekly celebration assemblies. We also encourage links with local sports clubs to promote a lifelong love of sport and physical activity, helping children understand the importance of staying active and healthy for life.
