Sports & PE Department

`OFF GAMES POLICY'

If a student is injured or ill, the PE Department needs to be informed of this with a letter from a parent or guardian; this letter should be presented at the start of the lesson or before.

In the RGSHW PE Department, we like to think that there is actually no such term as `off games', as we feel all boys can be given some form, of PE related work to do at an appropriate level to their injury or illness. This can include observation and analysis of peers, scoring, umpiring / refereeing, peer coaching, flexibility / stretching work or participating at a level they feel comfortable with.

For the reasons listed above, all boys are required to bring appropriate PE kit to suit the activity at the time. Indoor lessons - tracksuit, shorts, polo shirt, trainers. Outdoor lessons - appropriate footwear, tracksuit, waterproof, etc.

This policy has been put in place so that all boys are able to receive the best Physical Education provision possible which also ensures inclusion.

The PE Department would like to thank parents for their support. Thank you.
