Greenacre Sports Partnership & Kingfisher GREENACRE SPORTS PARTNERSHIP & KINGFISHER PRIMARY SCHOOL AGREEMENT Thank you for working in partnership with Greenacre Sports Partnership for the academic year September 2015 – August 2016. The aim of the Greenacre Sports Partnership is to deliver high quality PE and School Sport, through a variety of programmes that enrich staff knowledge and provide new experiences for all pupils. Both organisations will work together to provide appropriate opportunities for further development and participation in PE and School Sport. The services that Kingfisher Primary School has bought into are as follows: SUPPORT COST TOTAL COST GSP Membership £500.00 £500.00 Sports Crew £250.00 £250.00 Lesson Support for 6 teachers £325.00 £1950.00 Competition Training & Transport £4850.00 £4850.00 Balanceability x 1 £250.00 £250.00 C4L for Families £300.00 £300.00 After School Club x 6 £250.00 £1500.00 Total: £9600.00 The Greenacre Sports Partnership will support Kingfisher Primary School in the following ways: Compulsory GSP Membership Fee To be part of the Greenacre Sports Partnership, all schools must sign up to the GSP Membership which includes the following: Health & Safety Advice, as and when required. Event Calendar. Equipment Loan. Sports Coordinator Support. Termly newsletter. One free place to the annual GSP PE & School Sports Conference. Application guidance to the Sainsburys School Games Mark Accreditation. Access to the Annual Primary Football League. Access to the Annual Dance Fusion Competition. Skillz 4 Sport : Virtual League for Years 1 & 2. Sports Crew Training The Sports Crew programme has been designed for pupils in years 5 &/or 6 to develop their leadership skills to coordinate playground activities for their peers. The programme works particularly well in schools where playground time is not currently structured and it really can decrease the amount of behavioural problems seen during break time. GSP staff will also work alongside lunchtime supervisors so they can enhance their practice during lunchtimes and understand what to expect from the Sports Crew. GREENACRE SPORTS PARTNERSHIP & KINGFISHER PRIMARY SCHOOL AGREEMENT 1:1 Lesson Support For Teachers The 1:1 Lesson Support allows experienced PE Specialist teachers to work alongside Primary staff to enhance their knowledge and understanding of the PE curriculum and how to assess in PE. The 1:1 support is not evasive and allows teachers to develop new skills and acquire new ideas to enrich their current practice. The training is to upskill teachers to make an impact and sustain high quality delivery in PE and School Sport. The 1:1 Lesson Support programme is very structured and teachers can expect weekly feedback and advice to help them progress. At the end of the term, the sports coordinator and head teacher receives a full report of the CPD which Ofsted have been very supportive of in several primary schools across Medway. Competition Training & Transport The Competition Training & Transport Programme, is to support schools to enable them to participate in as many local competitions as possible. If schools are successful and win the local events they may have the opportunity to represent the Greenacre Sports Partnership & Medway at the Kent School Games. The programme includes pre competition training and team selection, immediate sign up to all Mini Youth Games and Primary School Games competitions, a minibus to and from each competition and a member of staff to attend the competitions with the school. With competition being high on the national agenda for PE and School Sport, and teachers having limited release time, this programme is a perfect compromise. Balanceability Balanceability teaches children under six the skills required to learn to ride a pedal bicycle. Through the use of pedal-less bikes, Balanceability eradicates the use of stabilisers and promotes the fundamental skill of cycling, which is balance. The programme comprises structured lesson plans that help children develop gross motor skills, spatial awareness, dynamic and static balance, bilateral co-ordination along with the necessary skills to make the transition from a balance bike to an ordinary pedal bike in a safe, challenging but fun way. C4L Club For Families The Change 4 Life Family programme is a 6 week programme that has been designed to bring together pupils & their parents to educate them to lead a healthier lifestyle and make healthy swaps in everyday life. With an increase of obesity levels across the UK and the realisation that the current generation will not outlive their parents, the C4L programme will increase the awareness and importance of healthy living to families. This programme really engages families into the school setting and has become a core link between school and community health projects. After School Clubs GSP can offer a variety of sports for after school clubs on a termly basis for any year group. Equipment can be provided if necessary and all sessions are one hour long. General: Ensure high quality PE and Sport is delivered through every session. Ensure all pupils have access to PE and Sport and provide opportunities that pupils may not be able to usually access.

Furthermore, we were very grateful for the assistance of eighteen Greenacre Leadership Academy students, and five 6th form students, who supported the event by assisting with stage management, photography, welcoming and ticket collection, backstage management and chaperone duties. These pupils did an excellent job and we couldn’t have done the event without their additional support.

  • Issue 18 Spring 2014
    Issue 18 Spring 2014 WELCOME. Welcome to the HSSP spring newsletter for 2014 – a rather wet one! A belated Happy New Sporting Year to yourselves and your pupils and parents. Many thanks for your school and pupils continued support of P.E. and School Sport in 2013 and of the many teacher training programmes, coaching, volunteering, playing and competitive opportunities we offer your schools. Our primaries are currently delighted with the news that the government has extended the grant offer of the Primary P.E. Premium funding until to summer 2016, (initially it was for 2 years only). So this ring fenced funding £9000 approx. per academic year for every Primary School, and an Ofsted priority, will last for 3 academic years. Furthermore, the current government have promised, to further extend this same amount every year for every Primary School until 2020 as part of the Olympic legacy, if they get elected. The HSSP staff are busy visiting many primary schools offering advice and support to Head Teachers and P.E. Co-ordinators on how to action plan and improve: their P.E. curriculum and quality of teaching and learning for staff and pupils, the health and physical activity levels of less active pupils and sports club and competition opportunities for all pupils. We have 39 out of a possible 45 schools signed up to our services this year and we plan to continue our school sport services for primaries in the future. We are currently reviewing our pricing structure to ensure that we can continue to exist financially beyond summer 2016, as we receive no government funding to help contribute towards the salaries of SSCo’s.

  • Draft LA Report Template
    Local Authority Report To The Schools Adjudicator From Kent County Council 30 June 2018 Report Cleared by: Keith Abbott - Director of Education Planning and Access Date submitted: 28th June 2018 By : Scott Bagshaw – Head of Fair Access Contact email address: [email protected] Telephone number: 03000 415798 www.gov.uk/government/organisations/office-of-the-schools-adjudicator Please email your completed report to: [email protected] by 30 June 2018 and earlier if possible 1 Introduction Section 88P of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (the Act) requires every local authority to make an annual report to the adjudicator. The Chief Adjudicator then includes a summary of these reports in her annual report to the Secretary for State for Education. The School Admissions Code (the Code) sets out the requirements for reports by local authorities in paragraph 6. Paragraph 3.23 specifies what must be included as a minimum in the report to the adjudicator and makes provision for the local authority to include any other issues. The report must be returned to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator by 30 June 2018. The report to the Secretary of State for 2017 highlighted that at the normal points of admission the main admissions rounds for entry to schools work well. The Chief Adjudicator expressed less confidence that the needs of children who need a place outside the normal admissions rounds were so well met. In order to test this concern, local authorities are therefore asked to differentiate their answers in this year’s report between the main admissions round and in year admissions1.
