The Government wants Physical Education (PE) and school sport
to be fun and attractive to all children whatever their level
of skill. PE and sport play an important role in school life,
help to raise standards, improve behaviour and health, increase
attendance and develop social skills. An ambitious target has
been set to increase the percentage of 5-16 year olds who spend
at least 2 hours each week on PE and school sport, within and
beyond the curriculum.
Elite Coaching & Leisure want all children to spend at least
two hours each week on high quality PE and school sport in and
out of school. Elite are working with key partners to implement
the PE, School Sport and Club Links Delivery Plan.
VISION
Elite Centres will raise standards of achievement in physical
education and sport for all our students across the ability range
leading to whole school improvement. They will be regional focal
points for promoting excellence in physical education and community
sport, extending links between families of schools, sports bodies
and communities, sharing resources, developing and spreading good
practice, helping to provide a structure through which young people
can progress to careers in sport and physical education. The Elite
Centres will increase participation in physical education and
sport for all pre 16 year olds and develop the potential of talented
performers.
ELITE COACHING & LEISURE WILL:
- Support the Government’s aspiration for all young people
to have two hours high quality PE per week within and outside
the curriculum.
- Take an appropriate role in the Physical Education, School
Sport and Club Links Strategy.
- Develop the skills and understanding of teachers and make
imaginative use of new technologies as a means of raising the
quality of teaching and learning in PE.
- Extend provision and facilities to benefit all students of
all sporting abilities, whilst also giving those with the greatest
potential, opportunities to achieve the highest standards of
which they are capable.
- Work with other schools and the wider community to develop
and share good practice, facilities, human and other resources
with a view to improving learning opportunities for all.
