Updated COVID-19 Guidance: Interpreting the Government Guidance in a PESSPA Context

The Association for Physical Education (afPE) has today published updated guidance to support the Physical Education, School Sport and Physical Activity (education based) workforce.

afPE is committed to ensuring high quality physical education can still be taught in these challenging times. As Government guidance is updated, we are also updating our own support documents in order to help you to amend your own risk assessments. Please ensure that you follow your employer’s instructions and use our support documentation to help you to develop your own effective working practices.

Sue Wilkinson MBE, afPE’s CEO said:

“afPE knows how hard schools and the wider workforce are working, to ensure that children and young people are safe and well whilst engaging in Physical Education, School Sport and Physical Activity. You have done an excellent job and we know the changing landscape isn’t always easy to navigate.”

 

“The Association is extremely fortunate to have a knowledgeable and committed Health and Safety team (Steve Caldecott, Nicky Scott and Jan Hickman) are working tirelessly to translate guidance so that we can keep our advice up to date and accurate. We do hope that you find the latest update helpful.”
