Physical Education - Sport Council

At Welsh House Farm, we are committed to providing every pupil with the best possible experience in Physical Education and school sport. Our Sports Council plays a key role in shaping and enhancing sporting opportunities across the school, helping to create a positive and inclusive sporting environment where all pupils can thrive.

Sports Councillors are chosen by their classmates in recognition of their enthusiasm, commitment, and willingness to support the development of PE and sport. They act as representatives for their peers, ensuring that pupils’ voices are heard in decisions relating to

school sport and physical activity. The council is made up of pupils from Years 2 to 6 who work closely with Mr Jones to promote a positive sporting culture throughout the school.

Throughout the year, Sports Councillors meet regularly to discuss ideas, share feedback from their classes, and contribute to decisions about sporting opportunities and initiatives. They play an important role in communicating information to their year groups and gathering opinions to help shape future developments.

The council also reviews the range of extracurricular clubs available and helps identify new opportunities that pupils would like to see offered. Meetings provide councillors with an understanding of the wider sporting provision within the school, including competitions, PE lessons, and enrichment activities.

Responsibilities of the Sports Council

Working alongside Mr Jones, Sports Councillors:

Help organise and support intra-school competitions.
Promote and celebrate sporting achievements across the school.

Sports Councillors receive support and guidance throughout their role, helping them develop leadership, communication, and teamwork skills. New councillors are appointed each academic year, providing pupils with a valuable opportunity to contribute to the

sporting life of the school and make a positive difference within their community.
