Sport & P.E.

Sport enjoys a pre-eminent role in life at Brooke Priory and is a crucial vehicle in the delivery of the School Values. Confidence, teamwork, resilience, respectfulness and honesty are all developed on the sports pitches, not to mention the visible pride and joy of pulling on the school’s jersey each Wednesday. We offer games lessons twice-a-week in the Prep School, alongside their weekly swimming, tennis, P.E. lessons and fixtures.

We strive to ensure our competitive sport is inclusive for all levels of confidence and competence, while at the same time providing opportunities for our elite performers to excel. Uniquely, Brooke Priory will provide all children with the chance to represent the school at sport. Our pupils embrace competition, not shy away from it; they learn how to meet with triumph and disaster, and treat those two imposters just the same!

From developing motor skills in their first years at school to preparing elite athletes for scholarships in Form VI, the range of sports at Brooke Priory is inclusive and unparalleled. Alongside each term’s major sports (rugby, hockey, football, netball, cricket, athletics), pupils have the opportunity to explore, and compete in, other pursuits and passions: racket sports, swimming, horse riding, gymnastics and martial arts. We have a strong record of success at County, Regional and National levels across a variety of sports.

Whatever the outcomes of our extensive fixture list against other schools, we welcome and appreciate the huge level of parental support on the side lines – we win and lose as a team.
