School Sports

At Tweendykes, our pupils are encouraged to pursue an active lifestyle and all pupils are encouraged to take part in Active60. We have access to 2 swimming pools, one of which is a hydrotherapy pool, and all pupils will get a chance to take part in high quality PE lessons during their time at Tweendykes. 

We receive funding from the School Sport Premium grant which is used to support our extended swimming programme, and broadening our range of sports and activities on offer.  

We have strong links with the Hull Active Schools partnership who facilitate competitions in a range of sports including Boccia, Cricket, Rugby, Football, Table Cricket, Swimming and many more throughout the year. Most pupils will get an opportunity to go off-site to a competition and all pupils will experience in in-house competition in a similar variety of sports. 

We’re delighted to have continued to achieve the SportsMark Gold Award for 2022/2023. The Award is a government led awards scheme supported by the Youth Sports Trust to recognise the commitment to sport made by schools.  

We have a great outdoor activity programme which includes a variety of residentials and other outdoor activities, such as the Duke of Edinburgh Award. 

We’re extremely proud of our pupils who have trained as Young Leaders though our award system and have helped to run several sporting events.

Sensory PE

This year we have adopted sensory circuit principles within our PE lessons. The sessions are set up in an obstacle course format starting with alerting  activities, moving onto organising activities and  finishing with calming activities. This term our whole school theme is imagination, linking to this the junior PE obstacle course that pupils can be seen participating in above is based around ‘Shrek’ and his mission to rescue Princess Fiona.
