The Roger Peel Sports Centre has been transformed to create a state-of-the-art fitness suite, providing pupils and the wider school community with an inspiring environment in which to train and thrive.

We have comprehensively redesigned the spaces around the main sports hall in the Roger Peel Sports Centre to create the new fitness suite. The old gym in the north-east corner of the sports centre will be converted into a classroom. At the same time, the current classroom, next to the viewing gallery on the opposite side, will be extended and become the upper floor of the new fitness suite.

This new first-floor space will be used primarily for cardiovascular exercise machines, with treadmills, cross-trainers, rowing machines and bikes. It will be enclosed by a stunning glass wall with the school’s coat of arms and, on one side, a list of the donors who have made the new gym possible.Downstairs is where gym users will focus on strength and conditioning. That larger ground-floor room will be equipped with several different machines and types of free weights, as well as CV machines for people unable to access the top floor.
