PE at Enfield Grammar provides boys with a wide and varied range of activities to allow them to pursue a healthy active lifestyle when they leave the school. We cover the traditional activities of rugby, football, cricket and athletics but these are taught alongside sports such as handball, table tennis and orienteering.
We are extremely fortunate to have superb facilities that allow us to cover such a wide range of activities. With two sports halls, fitness suit, dance studio, spin studio, 3G football pitch, three rugby pitches and three grass football pitches our facilities are some of the best in the borough if not North London.
Students are encouraged to work hard within their lessons and expand their knowledge and skills in the vast extra-curricular programme.
Extra-curricular provision is wide and varied and all students have the opportunity to participate at their own level in both competitive and recreational activities. Successes range from local and regional to national and even international.
There are lots of opportunities to get involved in the PE Departments extra-curricular activities. The extra-curricular timetable and clubs will change from term to term so keep checking for updates and changes.
