Early Years Screening Programme
afPE's course* stems from the recognition that some children enter
school facing motor competency challenges. Whether it's a lack of
exposure to physical activity, excessive screen time, or posture issues
from extended
periods in prams or car seats, we've identified the key
contributors. We screen for phonics and numeracy, but what about a child's ability to
move effectively? Physical development is a crucial aspect, and our
programme bridges this gap. This course qualifies you to accurately assess children’s motor
competency using a baseline assessment tool. Furthermore, it enables you
to run interventions for children to help them improve their motor
competency and to help them suppress primitive reflexes which will
improve coordination, balance, proprioception, agility. This will enable
children to take part with greater confidence in physical education
lessons and physical activity.
Gymnastics in the Primary School Teaching gymnastics in the primary school can be one of the most enjoyable subjects to deliver if you are confident to teach the basic skills, compositional movement and understand progression in the subject. This course aims to develop subject knowledge and provide confidence to teach safe, inspiring and high quality gymnastics in the primary school. Generally, the course is tailored to primary staff with QTS, PE subject leaders, HLTA’s, TA’s and Sports Coaches. To deliver a quality gymnastics curriculum you do not have to be a gymnast yourself! Moreover, you need to feel confident and understand what this subject looks like in the primary school.
