FAQs
Sainsbury’s Active Kids for All Inclusive PE Training is an initiative providing free training and resources to support teachers, trainee teachers and school staff across the UK to provide a high quality PE curriculum.
Sainsbury’s Active Kids for All Inclusive PE Training aims to improve confidence, knowledge and skills in including, challenging and progressing all pupils in curriculum PE.
The course has primarily been designed to support teachers and trainee teachers working in mainstream schools; however the principles used can be applied to a number of settings and can be of benefit to all young people. The training can also be used to support other school staff, trainee teachers, classroom assistants, learning support assistants and special educational needs co-ordinators.
The Inclusive PE Training Programme involves a free, face-to-face workshop which combines theory, discussion and practical, led by expert practitioners. The workshop is supported by interactive online resources available on this platform which have been specially designed to further improve confidence, skills and knowledge in the delivery of inclusive PE.
Through the Sainsbury’s Active Kids for All Inclusive PE Training workshop and interactive online resources, participants are supported to:
- Consider their current PE provision in the context of the learner’s journey
- Establish how and why some young people may be disengaged from PE
- Identify practical ideas to ensure all learners are included and making progress
- Understand effective communication
- Learn about other sources of relevant information.
The Sainsbury’s Active Kids for All Inclusive PE Training workshop and supporting resources are free to access, thanks to a £1.6 million investment from Sainsbury’s.
Following attendance at a Sainsbury’s Active Kids for All Inclusive PE Training workshop, candidates are encouraged to share the training and online resources with colleagues.
