Course 15 (Duration 1 day) National Course - also available for Partnership Training
Gymnastics at Key Stage 1

Course Objectives:

  • to develop knowledge and understanding of movement principles, skills and lesson material for Reception and Key Stage 1
  • to develop appropriate teaching and learning strategies
  • to develop and explore a progressive Scheme of Work

This course will develop and extend the knowledge and understanding of teachers in Key Stage 1 and build confidence in their delivery of gymnastic lessons. It will examine and explore development and progression through a whole school schematic approach, demystify and thoroughly explore apparatus work and provide a clear framework for delivery of gymnastics in the National Curriculum. The teaching of basic gymnastic skills in a progressive and safe way and the principles involved in sequence-construction will be addressed as appropriate. Expected learning outcomes will be identified in detail for the end of year 2 to more accurately identify Attainment Target Levels. Issues of differentiation and inclusion will be addressed throughout the course.

As part of the National course each participant will receive a detailed and comprehensive teaching manual and scheme of work for Key Stage 1 Gymnastics (Click here to view the manual).

Partnership courses should provide for one manual per school as part of the training.

Course members should dress appropriately for some practical participation.

Target Audience:

  • Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 Teachers
  • Physical Education Co-ordinators
  • School Sport Co-ordinators

 

Course 16 (Duration 1 day) National Course - also available for Partnership Training
Gymnastics at Key Stage 2

Course Objectives:

  • to develop knowledge and understanding of movement principles, skills and lesson material for Key Stage 2
  • to develop appropriate teaching and learning strategies
  • to develop and explore a progressive Scheme of Work

This course will develop and extend the knowledge and understanding of teachers in Key Stage 2 and build confidence in their delivery of gymnastics in the curriculum. It will examine and encourage progression and development through a whole-school schematic approach. The progressive and safe teaching of basic gymnastic skills will be explored, both individually and in pairs and the principles of sequence-construction will be addressed and developed as appropriate. All aspects of apparatus work will be explored and explained (i.e. handling, organisation, siting and use) and expected minimum standards of performance will be identified in detail at the end of years 4 and 6 to help teachers make accurate judgements about Attainment Target Levels. Issues of differentiation and inclusion will be addressed throughout the day.

As part of the National course each participant will receive a detailed and comprehensive teaching manual and scheme of work for Key Stage 2 Gymnastics (Click here to view the manual).

Partnership courses should provide for one manual per school as part of the training.

Course members should dress appropriately for some practical participation.

Target Audience:

  • Key Stage 2 Teachers
  • Physical Education Co-ordinators
  • School Sport Co-ordinators

 

Course 17 (Duration 1 day) National Course - also available for Partnership Training
Gymnastics at Key Stages 1 and 2

Course Objectives:

  • to develop knowledge and understanding of movement principles, skills and lesson material for Key Stages 1 and 2
  • to develop appropriate teaching and learning strategies
  • to develop and explore a progressive Scheme of Work for the Primary school

This course will develop and extend the knowledge and understanding of teachers in Key Stages 1 and 2 and build confidence in their delivery of gymnastic lessons. It will examine and encourage progression and development from Reception through to Year 6 using a whole school schematic approach. The progressive and safe teaching of basic gymnastic skills will be explored, in both individual and pair situations. Combined with an understanding of principles of movement, sequence-construction and extension will be developed both on floor and apparatus. This will equip practitioners to encourage creativity and build in complexity as pupils' progress through the school. The course will also thoroughly explore apparatus work in a way which will enable pupils to build confidence and develop skills.

Expected minimum standards of performance will be identified in detail at the end of years 2, 4 and 6 to help teachers make more accurate judgements of attainment target levels. Issues of differentiation and inclusion will be addressed.

As part of the National course each participant will receive detailed and comprehensive teaching manuals and schemes of work for Key Stages 1 and 2 Gymnastics (Click to view the appropriate manual - Key Stage 1 / Key Stage 2).

Partnership courses should provide for one manual per school as part of the training.

Course members should dress appropriately for some practical participation.

Target Audience:

  • Key Stages 1 and 2 Teachers
  • Physical Education Co-ordinators
  • School Sport Co-ordinators

 

Course 18 (Duration 1 day) National Course - also available for Partnership Training
Gymnastics at Key Stages 3 and 4

Course Objectives:

  • to develop knowledge and understanding of individual, pair and group gymnastics at Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4
  • to enable teachers to develop stimulating and progressive schemes of work and use apparatus effectively and imaginatively

Whilst individual skill learning should always continue to be a major factor in the teaching of gymnastics, it is also recognised that skill adaptation, refinement and development in 2's, 3's and groups will provide more interesting and exciting work at Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4.

This course will analyse and clarify principles of movement and provide teachers with the materials and extension activities to motivate pupils at Key Stage 3 & 4. Practical application and discussion will also develop knowledge and understanding. In the revised programmes for secondary schools there is less prescribed content and a greater emphasis on the key concepts and five key processes that underline the subject. However, it does not mean that we throw away the specific content of gymnastics. Practical core content will always remain constant because core skills and principles do not change.

Core skills and essential principles of movement and sequence construction will be identified in some detail. These will be incorporated into more complex sequences and developed, adapted and refined for use on both floor and apparatus. Stimulating units of work will be explored and Minimum Expected Standards of performance will be identified in detail to enable teachers more accurately to define the Attainment Target level of their pupils. Course members should dress appropriately for some practical participation.

As part of the National course each participant will receive detailed and comprehensive teaching manuals and schemes of work for Key Stages 3 and 4 Gymnastics (click here to view).

Partnership courses should provide for one manual per school as part of the training.

Target Audience:

  • (Middle) Secondary Teachers of Physical Education
  • Physical Education Heads of Department
