Sports Facilities

We are proud to offer outstanding sports opportunities through our dedicated facility at Dean Park.This beautiful 6.5-acre sports ground, located in the heart of Bournemouth, is just a short drive from our main school site. Pupils are transported via our school minibuses for regular games lessons and competitive fixtures.

In the past academic year alone, over 800 children have participated in a wide range of sports at Dean Park, including athletics, rounders, netball, football, rugby, and Tri Golf. To ensure year-round access, we have invested in all-weather training pitches, allowing lessons and matches to continue regardless of the weather.
