As part of Manchester's PE strategy, Irk Valley Community School is committed to 

• tackling inactivity in young people
• growing regular sports participation for all
• starting well – fostering a culture of physical activity and sport at a young age; 
• developing sporting excellence that inspires;
• providing at least two hours of quality physical education per week

 

In order to give all our children the opportunity to compete in regular sporting competition, the school has enrolled in the Youth Sports Trust's School Games program which encourages

 

"Keeping competitive sport at the heart of schools and providing more young people with the opportunity to compete and achieve their personal best."

 

Underpinning all competition at Irk Valley are our core beliefs of:

Being respectful

Being safe

Being ready

School Sports Organising Crew

After showing excellent attitude, aptitude and leadership qualities in PE lessons, after school clubs and sporting competitions, our first ever members have been selected for the school's Sports Organising Crew.

 

The crew will be on hand to assist with any clubs, coach small groups of younger children, officiate competitions and help organise our termly tournaments.

 

They will also be on hand to pass on any suggestions to Coach Mark. So if any one has any suggestions on which sports should be covered in PE lessons, at lunch or after school, then just chat to your friendly Sports Crew member.
