Students will undertake a student led game sense approach that builds skill development, allows leadership exploration and promotes personal skills to enhance team dynamics. Students will study international sports, games of the past and games of the future with a particular focus on the Commonwealth Games to understand the importance of quality behaviours in sport by exploring a range of sports to provide examples of leadership, teamwork, inclusion, fair play and ethical behaviour.
