Physical Education Mission Statement
At Bailey Street Alternative Provision Academy, the goal of our Physical Education department is to enhance the learning process by making the classes enjoyable as well as educational. The most important objective is for the student to understand how important physical activity (exercise) and nutrition are to maintaining an active lifestyle throughout their life. Teamwork, social skills, and sportsmanship are also a prime focus upon during each activity. Our aim at Bailey Street Academy is to provide students chances to experience opportunities that they would not otherwise be able to access. Through Physical Education, the aim is to enhance student’s lifelong skills that they will continue to use when they leave Bailey Street.
