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.

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.
