Sports are great for developing a pupil’s character and moral principles through fair play; this is evident in any sport or activity they take part in at school.a
The importance of teamwork and working together with peers and teammates is a life skill that will stay with them for all their future endeavors, and their involvement teaches vital lessons about team spirit. Children who play competitive sport at ISWK [Cambridge] learn to win with class and lose with dignity, preparing them for whatever life might throw at them in years to come. Often, pupils will learn from their failures and use it as motivation to work even harder next time, which is a valuable life lesson in itself.
We believe in mass participation, exposing our students to a number of sports events at inter- school, state, national and international level. Every student is encouraged to join at least one school sports team. The P.E. teachers we employ are young and energetic with a good amount of expertise in sports and provide coaching for sports like football, basketball, throwball etc. We have weekly achievable goals for the different skills required for a particular sport and train students accordingly.
