The PE department offers a diverse range of extra-curricular clubs that students can attend during the academic year. These include football, table tennis, netball, rounders, rowing, tennis, athletics and handball.

Representative house and school team fixtures are arranged throughout the school year to nurture a competitive element into the development of each student.  School fixtures take place after school usually within the Swale district. The PE department also competes in county competitions in a range of sports.
