Passionate about PE, School Sport and PA @sportimpactuk All children should develop a positive connection to movement for life. Sharing ideas, always learning.

There is a lot of focus on changing ‘what’ we teach girls in PE... what about a focus on ‘How’ we teach them. We don’t always remember what we did in a lesson but we remember how we were made to feel https://t.co/RwPqf1frlW

@ThePEUmbrella @Lee_Sullivan85 The conversation around primary teachers being best placed to teach PE, especially teachers who might have had negative experiences growing up. I often find they teach PE with such care, kindness and creativity. I learn most working with these teachers.

@Lee_Sullivan85 A primary teacher vented to me today -the recent requirement for over complicated summative assessment data across all foundation subjects to be recorded and shared with SLT. Adding to massive workload and doing a disservice to the uniqueness of these precious subjects.

@Lee_Sullivan85 @PEScholar @WannaTeachPE @WillSwaithes @LizDurdenMyers @MrCampbell_PE @leading_in_Ed @PhilMathe79_PE Like it’s been mentioned. If we also make them editable then schools can adapt. I think a starting point and structure is always so useful x

@Lee_Sullivan85 @PEScholar @WannaTeachPE @WillSwaithes @LizDurdenMyers @MrCampbell_PE @leading_in_Ed @PhilMathe79_PE More than happy. Send them over 👍

@Lee_Sullivan85 @PEScholar @WannaTeachPE @WillSwaithes @LizDurdenMyers @MrCampbell_PE @leading_in_Ed @PhilMathe79_PE I did watch the course and found it really useful in realising how much assessment is already happening.. but I still think downloadable templates alongside simple generic guidance would help time poor subject leaders.

@IAnsonC @LPESSN @afPE_PE But mostly stick to your guts about your provision and don’t be swayed by a few loud voices… there’s a temptation to keep a few happy at the expensive of the quiet majority #harmfreePE

@IAnsonC @LPESSN @afPE_PE What about a sports day festival that culminates in optional competitive races? That way you don’t have to organise two events..I’ve seen this format work really well in primary settings… just don’t do a parents race at the end 🫣 🚑 🚑

@IAnsonC @Lee_Sullivan85 @LizDurdenMyers I can only throw it back if it’s a large ball 😬 otherwise I pretend I didn’t see it 🫣

@Lee_Sullivan85 Love this Lee. Thanks for sharing… really resonates with me on so many levels.

My first ever football tournament. Turns out football is bloody hard.. I have no left foot. We lost 5 games and drew 1. We loved every minute and the 11 year old girl in me that never got to play was buzzing ⚽️ #bushyparkladies

@SRoadleySEND_PE I found secondary school became a lot about friendships for the girls. We once organised a PE trip to Nandos. It meant the girls could hangout with friends they had made through sport. We gave out some awards. We tried to build a sense of community, friendship and belonging.

[Clare King @MrsKingPE]

My children both attend/attended a primary school graded by ofsted (twice) as ‘requires improvement’ they both thrive/ed at this school. I couldn’t fault the education, sense of community and nurture they receive there. Ofsted gradings are a snap shot and not the reality.
