Sport is a fundamental part of life at Farlington, where students develop leadership, teamwork and resilience through playing a variety of sports. Farlington's dedicated Sports Department, headed up by Director of Sport Mr Simon Faulkner, work tirelessly to ensure that all students enjoy participating in sport, and develop a lifelong love of exercise.
Whilst inclusivity and 'participation for all' are at the heart of our sports offering, we also provide opportunities for pupils to excel and reach their full potential in their chosen sport(s).
The majority of sports are available as part of our varied curriculum, and as competitive teams and squads. Our curriculum is complemented by an extensive extra-curricular programme, with a wide range of sporting options to choose from. We also run a successful Scholarships programme for Sport. For more details, please see our Scholarships page.
During the Summer Term, students of all ages take part in our much-anticipated Sports Days. These exciting events provide a wonderful opportunity for our Farlington community to come together and celebrate our love of sport – the students are certainly spurred on by seeing their families cheering from the sidelines!
r fantastic sports facilities include a full-sized, all-weather Astroturf pitch, a large sports hall, and tennis and netball courts. In addition, there is the opportunity for students in Year 7 and above to access our fitness suite, which helps us to promote a healthy, active lifestyle amongst our students.
