Vision & Achievements

Vision

At Highfield our vision is to provide as many children as we can with the opportunity to take part in a wide range of sporting experiences.  We wish them to enjoy sport and to learn and develop through their participation in physical activity regardless of their level of competition.

We aim to build a shared ethos of success, support and self-belief through the provision of high quality curriculum P.E. and through training and involving a growing number of staff in the provision of extra curricular sport.
