The Schools Active Community Coach

It’s the final week of the half term! Our focus for this week is Active Interventions! 🔹Do you run then? 🔶Can you fit them into your timetable? I well share intervention options as well as timetabling & a dry diving case study! #schoolleaders #educhat #education #teacher

Space, the thing us PE teachers always want more of! But the right playground markings can create more opportunities for activity, just be careful not to make it look like someone has gone mad with chalk all over it! #educhat #edutwitter #education #PEteachers

This weeks theme is Active Interventions 🔶Do you utilise them? 🔹How do you fit them in your timetable? 🔶Who leads them? Done right, these sessions are game changers for pupils involved & help children see how activity can be used to help us learn in different ways! #Educhat

This weeks Sunday Blog focuses on a Borrow a Bike Scheme Where families paid a small deposit to loan a bike for their child for 1/2 a term before either bringing it back, or extending the loan Read the full post 👇 dchaplen.wordpress.com/borro… #educhat #school #primaryschool

Having a strong active ethos means supports/promoting active options available outside of your school, so this includes community clubs If you have active groups within your community, reach out to them & begin to build a network to support one another! #educhat #schoolleaders

Remove barriers for educators to be active by creating Active Options for School Staff in your school 🔶 Is that the job of school leaders? 🔶 Is it necessary? 🔶 What are the benefits? This can be an inexpensive way to boost wellbeing! #educhat #education #teachersrunclub

This week’s topic is #CommunityEngagment 🔶Do you as a school work alongside community groups in your area? 🔶Do you host anything on site that is open to more than just your pupils? Keep an eye out each day this week for different tips on this topic! #esuchat #education

Morning #educhat Quantity/Quality Which 1 do you think is most Important in your #primayschool club offer Do you have clubs with small numbers that could be bigger? Do you have some that are so full no one is gaining anything from being there? Let me know your thoughts 👇

Extracurricular club Love them or hate them? You can’t deny the impact they can have on the pupils and their parent/guardians Morning clubs are a great way to reach a high number of pupils will less input needed from staff than an after school club 👇 #educhat #edutwitter

Each #Sunday I will Round up the week’s theme with a real life example of 1 concept in action This week’s focuses on the power of #TableTennis in schools & how it can help create active opportunities for even the most unwilling of students Read it👇 mailchi.mp/7b8820cb3451/a-ro…

An Active Ethos goes beyond what the children do, but also what they see Trips to sporting events are so rewarding, & enjoyable for pupils & staff Whether it’s @wembleystadium or your local #Netball team, so much can be taken from live sport opportunities #educhat #teachers

Developing an Active Ethos means movement is incorporated in all areas of school, including the classroom How many staff meetings & CPD sessions have you had to stop yourself dozing off in😴 Movement is possible, even in the smallest classroom #EduChat #teachers #SchoolLeaders

A brilliant idea that will make cycling more accessible to your community! Having access to a bike is something so many of us will take for granted! @TeacherCycling @Sustrans

Whether it’s skipping, yo-yos or diabolos, traditional games are great for free time activity Not all break time play has to be a ‘sport’ & simple games like these can bring the playground to life (And they don’t even realise that they are being active) #educhat #schoolleaders

School lunch & break time’s are excellent opportunities for creative active opportunities But they can also become a huge headache for staff dealing with constant issues See👇 a few thoughts on different ways to reach more pupils with creative active options #EduChat #Teachers

This week’s theme is: Take Your Active Opportunities off the Court! Each day I will have a different focus point on this theme & I will Round the week off with a Table Tennis case study! Join the mailing list 👇 so you don’t miss out: linktr.ee/schools.community.… #educhat
