Teacher CPD - Fundamental Movement Skills

This 2-part course will provide a range of activities suitable for Early Years upwards, giving children the firm foundations they need.

Many children arrive in school without a wide and varied movement vocabulary, unable to perform basic fundamental movement skills (FMS). Changes in childcare practices and technological developments mean it is less likely that children have been allowed to play out, jump in puddles, climb trees and take part in rough and tumble play. Many children spend increasing amounts of time sitting, watching educational videos, playing with smart toys and in general being much more sedentary than in the past.

This course will provide a range of activities suitable for Early Years upwards, giving children the firm foundations they need, to develop fundamental skills of Stability, Object Control and Locomotion, enabling them to better access Physical Education and Sport.
