Primary PE CPD
Total Sports have been providing learning opportunities for teachers and all staff working in around schools in York and North Yorkshire for over 17 years. Over these years we have provided all day primary PE team teaching sessions, twilight training courses, mentoring, co-coaching, school networking events and much more.
As part of our CPD offering, our qualified coaching team working alongside your staff members and develop their confidence and competency with delivering the full PE curriculum. Following a set structured programme, staff work with our team over a set period of time decided by the school, initially observing our team deliver sessions, we gradually hand over parts of lessons whilst observing and providing feedback. The end goal is for you staff to deliver a full PE session or block of work with our team observing and providing structured next steps which teachers can work on. We deliver the CPD programme across the full year so staff develop confidence with the full curriculum.
As part of our CPD package, we organise regular training events for your school and also provide opportunities for staff to go to other local schools to observe excellent PE curriculums. The primary aim of our CPD support is to up skill your staff in a way which suits their confidence with PE and to a timescale which suits the schools demands. Our team love seeing your staff grow and develop their confidence in PE with you, your school and children benefiting as a result!
