Autumn 1 - PESSPA Leader attended the FSSP Sports Conference, with a focus on encouraging girls’ participation in PE, networking and sharing good practice for teaching swimming. This resulted in the sports coach running weekly afternoon sessions for the more able and female cricketers in KS2 throughout the first half term. Teachers were asked for feedback on fitspurts which showed some support was required in terms of ways to incorporate the sessions into a very tight weekly timetable. Staff voice on the delivery PE showed confidence in delivery of each year groups’ units.

Autumn 2 - the PESSPA leader attended a school swimming CPD session to help her to identify activities which could positively impact pupils learning. As one of the Y4 teachers who take the cohort swimming, this developed her own confidence of the KS2 programme of study, supported her understanding of any health and safety considerations and provided her with strategies to improve pupil engagement. This was also then shared with other Y4 colleagues.

The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity - Chief Medical Officer guidelines recommend that primary school pupils undertake at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day in school.

Autumn 1 - new Sports Leaders and Change 4 Life Champions were selected by class teachers and received training from Forge SSP at the beginning of the academic year. They have since been supporting pupils to keep active during lunchtimes each day. The Girls’ Football Activators were rebranded as Girls’ Sports Activators and are running a different sporting activity each half term, based on pupil voice. Zones in the playgrounds allowed pupils to engage in a range of different physical activities, such as skipping, ActivAll Boards and cycling on balance bikes. Fitspurts continued throughout the week, giving the pupils short sharp bursts of physical activity within the school day. Y1 pupils had access to weekly Forest School activities, promoting more active learning in the outdoors.

Autumn 2 - in addition to the continuing fitspurts and playground games over lunchtime, all year groups took part in the half termly outdoor learning and wellbeing sessions, ensuring pupils were more physically active during their afternoon outside. Y6 attended their residential trip which involved a huge range of physical activities, including axe throwing, the climbing wall and the zip wire.

Autumn 1 - PESSPA Leader has reviewed the toolkit and identified a need to focus on girls and pupils with SEND in sport. She has also researched the criteria for the KS1 Sportsmark and has put an action in place to achieve this, including extending sports leaders into Y1 and Y2. Pupils took part in the Koboca National Physical Activity and Wellbeing Survey which has helped identify those in need of targeted support and gain a good insight into activity levels. The school registered as a Parkrun School and has celebrated associated pupils’ achievements on social media. Various external PA activity opportunities have been advertised via the weekly newsletter.

Autumn 2 - whole school events such as the Sheffield Skipathon and iMoves Advent Calendar raised the profile of physical activity across school. The sports coach worked with pupils with SEND and those suffering with anxiety with the aim of increasing their confidence in sports through fun, low stakes games and team competition.

Autumn 1 - the school registered for Parkrun and advertised this via the weekly newsletter. Staff ran weekly after-school clubs for a range of sporting activities including Y2 ball games, Y4 cricket, Y5/6 snooker and Y5/6 girls netball. In addition to this, the Forge sports coach ran a Y3 football club, as well as weekly afternoon cricket for the more able pupils in KS2. Pupils’ feedback showed they had improved their cricket skills and enjoyed the sessions.

Autumn 2 - sporting clubs for this half term continued with Y1/2 mini-Olympics, Y3 dodgeball, Y4 badminton, Y5/6 snooker and Y5/6 girls’ netball, the whole school took part in the Sheffield Skipathon Week in November and some Y4 pupils attended a Skipping Event during the week where they learnt lots of new games to bring back to school and teach others during lunchtimes. The ‘imoves’ advent calendar was shared with all staff to incorporate in their PE lessons and fit spurts during December.

Autumn 1 - the school signed up again this year to the

Federation for School Sports to enable pupils to take part in a range of football tournaments. A number of competitions and festivals were attended, including a KS2 teambuilding challenge, which the children thoroughly enjoyed and demonstrated excellent teamwork. In the Y5/6 tag rugby competition, the pupils won four out of six of their games and in the Y5/6 dodgeball competitions, they won the majority of their games. The ActivAll Challenge also runs every morning during Breakfast Club, with a rolling leader board in place for the different category of games. Y6 pupils also attended a football fixture at Woodhouse West, in which they won one game, drew one and lost one.

Autumn 2 - Y3/4 pupils entered a football competition, winning every game in their first pool; they won one game and drew two in the final round. Y4 girls also competed in a football event; they worked so well as a team, winning all their games in pool one; they then won two, drew one and lost one in the second pool. Y5/6 pupils took part in an athletics competition; we came fifth overall but two Y6 boys won their individual races. Pupils in Y1 and Y2 took part in a Christmas Virtual Competition in December, with support from the Y5/6 sports leaders. ActivAll Boards continue to increase competition during Breakfast Club and we now also have a second pool table so more pupils can compete against each other every morning.
