Together we will go through the format that will be best suited to your teachers. We recommend that each teacher gets individual training for the most effective training. Teaching your teachers within their own lessons so that they are ready to continue at the new standard once we leave.
Our standard structure is as follows (We can adjust this where necessary):
A national survey reported that only 56% of primary teachers felt confident teaching PE. Given that gymnastics requires specific skills and safety considerations, it’s plausible that confidence levels in teaching gymnastics will be even lower than teaching general PE.
Together we will go through the format that will be best suited to your teachers. We recommend that each teacher gets individual training for the most effective training. Teaching your teachers within their own lessons so that they are ready to continue at the new standard once we leave!
Our standard structure is as follows (We can adjust this where necessary):
Week 1: Teacher observes the coach and makes notes/records the session.
Week 2: Teacher teaches the same lesson as demonstrated in week 1, and is given verbal feedback by the coach.
Week 3: The teacher and coach team-teach a lesson together.
Week 4: Teacher observes the coach.
Week 5: Teacher delivers their own lesson and is observed by the coach. Written feedback is given by the coach.
Week 6: The teacher and coach team-teach a lesson together, focused on weaker areas outlined in the feedback from the previous lesson.
Only our very best staff with the most experience delivers the CPD program. We are unique as we have the gymnastic background knowledge mixed with the 20 years primary school teaching background of one of our coaches.
1-1 CPD is the most effective form of training as it give teachers the opportunity to be open to the areas they need developing so that the training can be as tailored as possible to these areas. By investing into your school you will see better results for your students both inside and out the classroom.
Yes. Should your school wish to combine our CPD training with another one of our services (Curriculum PE / PPA, Morning Movers, After school club, Lunchtime Energizer) you will receive a discount overall reflective of the services booked.
We stand out as a specialist gymnastics CPD provider for 2 main reasons. The first is that we are a specialist gymnastic club and all our staff are previous or current gymnasts. The second is that we have found short form videos to complement the teachers training sessions have been most effective at consolidating knowledge. This comprehensive video library has been put together based off all the feedback we have had from teaching gymnastics CPD in primary schools. Should we find particular areas of weakness that are specific to your school we will record and add to the library whilst the training that is on-going.
