Each year group is timetabled to have Games each day and one Physical Education session per week. With this bolstered by matches, activities, clubs and extra training (for those playing at county level and above), most children will have about 10 hours of vigorous sporting activity each week.

For a small school, we have an unusually large pool of sporting talent and regularly punch above our weight – the last 6 years has seen us reach 9 IAPS national hockey finals. We are incredibly proud of our sporting achievements: over the last 12 years our children have been awarded 39 sports scholarships to 14 national senior schools.

Games and PE are taught by experienced, well-qualified staff, who each have extensive experience playing sport to the highest levels.  We can also arrange specialist one-to-one coaching for individual children in cricket, tennis, hockey, rugby and swimming. When children have individual sporting interests out of school, we make arrangements so as to encourage and foster these pursuits.

We are delighted to announce our new Sports Academy initiative, giving greater access to our professional sports coaches. The Luke Caswell Cricket Academy at Beeston will enable children at Beeston to build on the coaching they already receive, including one-to-one performance coaching and sports nutrition advice. Linked to this Sports Academy, two cricket scholarships are available annually.
