Sports at Chilton - Teamwork and competition

There is a strong sporting tradition in the School with most girls from Years 3 -13 playing in one or more sports in addition to the core Physical Education programme.

At primary levels, the Sports Co-ordinator is supported by two part time Physical Education teachers. At secondary levels, the Head of Sport collaborates with the Head of Physical Education. This powerful collaboration of specialist staff across every level of the school ensures that the range and quality of the co-curricular programme is greatly enhanced without compromising the core classroom programmes offered.
