SELECTION POLICY
As a school we try to provide as many opportunities for students to take part in sport as possible. This may mean that some events will take the most competitive squad to compete whereas for other events we may select a squad based on giving children the opportunity to represent the school in competition.
The teacher has sole responsibility for selecting children for a team or race event and we would ask that children and parents respect the teacher's decision. If a child or parent is unhappy with the teacher's selection, the opportunity to take part will be offered to another child. Once letters have been sent out it will not be possible to change positions or events.
Please note: There should not be an expectation for staff to arrange sporting fixtures and/or run clubs. However, staff are willing to give up their own time to provide the children with these great opportunities; please therefore respect their decisions at all times.
