Comprehensive PE Provision: The Kick Out Club can strategically plan, execute, and assess PE lessons within your secondary school. This is particularly beneficial for schools with non-specialist PE staff or those in technology colleges and similar educational settings.

This can involve student-led activities during lunch or break times, instilling a sense of responsibility and teamwork.

Supply and Maternity Cover: Our qualified coaches are available for last-minute or planned staff absences in secondary schools, providing short or long-term assistance. They can lead PE lessons, supervise tutor groups, and fill gaps to ensure the smooth running of the secondary school day.

Tailored Extra-Curricular Clubs: We offer high-quality, sports-based extra-curricular clubs designed specifically for secondary schools. These clubs, funded by students or the school, can focus on specific sports or general fitness, offering secondary school students an alternative and enriching experience. Utilising Pupil Premium funding for these clubs is a valuable investment in the development and well-being of secondary school students.

By partnering with us for your secondary school sports coaching needs, you can enrich your PE provision, foster student engagement, nurture leadership skills, and provide valuable opportunities for physical activity and personal growth among secondary school students.

Our PPA cover and PE lesson programs provide extensive assistance to schools, aiming to enhance student engagement, offer dependable PPA cover for teachers, and elevate the significance of sports within your educational environment.

Flexibility in scheduling: We offer adaptable scheduling options tailored to the unique needs of each school. Whether you need full days, mornings, or afternoons, our sessions can be customised to meet your specific requirements.

Our Wellness-Focused Workshops are crafted to be enjoyable and interactive, featuring activities that empower students to grasp the significance of nutritious eating and overall well-being. By engaging in these workshops, children acquire valuable knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their health, enabling them to lead balanced lives.

The kick out club provides personalised one-on-one support to assist schools in addressing the unique needs of their students. Our specialised coaches collaborate closely with SEND, vulnerable, or disengaged pupils to offer guidance in accessing both PE lessons and the broader curriculum.

Here’s an overview of how our one-to-one support operates:

Assistance Across Subjects: Our coaches directly engage with identified students, offering support in subjects like Maths, English, PE, and various areas of the curriculum.

Flexible Scheduling: Coaches can be scheduled for the entire school day, mornings, or afternoons, adapting to the specific needs of both the school and the individual student.

Guidance and Motivation: Coaches prompt and encourage identified students during lessons, providing guidance and support to enrich their learning experience.

Movement Breaks: Our coaches help students recognise when they may benefit from a movement break and teach them how to effectively utilise this time in a controlled and supported manner. Coaches can accompany the student during the break or offer support from a distance, based on individual requirements.

Assistance for Other Students: Beyond supporting the identified student, our coaches are available to assist other students in the class as needed. This approach promotes independence for the identified student while ensuring a controlled environment with the coach nearby.

Customised Provision: We recognise the uniqueness of each school and learner. As such, our one-to-one support can be tailored to meet the specific needs of your school, ensuring a personalised and effective approach.

Please note that the breakdown provided is a general overview, and we are always prepared to customise our provision to align with the individual requirements of each school and learner.

Our Dynamic Lunchtime Clubs offer students vibrant and invigorating activities during lunch. Here’s how they operate:

‍

Specialised Sports Clubs: These clubs are typically funded by parents and center around specific sports.

Optimal choices include sports that don’t necessitate a change into specific attire, such as Soft Archery and Table Tennis.

Nevertheless, we can also coordinate other sports and ensure supervision during attire changes.

Parents can conveniently reserve and pay for these clubs through the Kick out online booking system.

Schools can choose to access the register electronically or print it for reference.

‍

Lively Lunch Clubs: These school-funded drop-in sessions give students the freedom to choose their activities.

Most schools conduct these clubs at least three times a week to maximise student participation.

The clubs feature a blend of easy-to-follow games like “Foxes and Farmers” to keep students active and entertained.

Our coaches only need a modest space, approximately one-third of a netball court, to conduct these sessions.

‍

What Our Coaches Bring: Our coaches are committed to fostering maximum student engagement in the clubs.

They maintain a positive and enthusiastic approach while ensuring behavioural control and session safety.

Depending on the agreed-upon arrangements, coaches will either bring their own company equipment or utilise the school’s equipment.

Tailored for Different Age Groups: In Key Stage 1 (KS1), our coaches focus on fun and straightforward games that enhance agility, balance, coordination, and speed.

For Key Stage 2 (KS2), sports matches and games like end-ball, football, dodgeball, and more are popular among students.

Through our Dynamic Lunch Clubs, students get the chance to stay active, have fun, and develop their physical skills in a supportive and inclusive environment.

Our Youth Leadership Program aims to empower older students, fostering their leadership skills while emphasising the value of sports within your school. Here’s an overview of how the program operates:

Program Duration:

The program spans 12 weeks, providing an extensive timeframe for young leaders to refine their skills and make a positive impact.

Weekly Kick Out Club Coaching Session:

Once a week, or as frequently as desired, our seasoned Kick Out Club coaches collaborate closely with a group of older students. In these coaching sessions, young leaders learn the intricacies of planning, organising, and delivering sports clubs to younger peers.

Remaining Weekdays:

On the remaining weekdays, young leaders have the opportunity to apply their training. They take on the responsibility of leading games and activities for younger students during break times. This hands-on experience allows them to put their newly acquired skills into practice and gain confidence in engaging and inspiring their peers.

Additional Program Benefits:

• Feedback and Support: Following each session with the Kick out club coach, young leaders receive valuable feedback and guidance. Coaches provide constructive input to help improve their delivery and enhance leadership skills, ensuring continuous growth throughout the program.
• Extra Support: If desired, the Kick out club coach can attend school on more days to offer further support and supervision. They can observe young leaders conducting their sessions, providing guidance and assistance as needed, facilitating a smooth transition into independent leadership.
• Certificates of Achievement: At the program’s conclusion, all participating students receive certificates of achievement. These certificates recognise their commitment, dedication, and growth as young leaders within the school community.

‍

Our Youth Leadership Program provides a structured and engaging pathway for older students to cultivate their leadership abilities and contribute to sports development within your school. Through coaching sessions, practical experience, feedback, and support, we empower young leaders to become confident, responsible, and inspiring role models.

Our Professional Development Programme for Teachers offers a systematic approach to enhancing educators’ skills, knowledge, and confidence in delivering PE lessons. Here’s a breakdown of how it operates:

• Collaboration with PE Mentors: Experienced PE Mentors closely collaborate with your teachers within their own classrooms. They provide guidance, support, and practical insights to enhance teachers’ comprehension and implementation of effective PE teaching practices.
• Tailored CPD Programme: Each participating teacher receives a physical copy of the Kick out club CPD handbook, serving as a guide for their professional development journey. The handbook outlines key areas to focus on during the term and is highly adaptable to meet the individual needs of each teacher.
• Gradual Learning Process: The programme follows a progressive structure. Initially, teachers observe the mentor in action, gaining valuable insights into effective teaching strategies. As the programme advances, teachers gradually assume more responsibility, leading segments of the PE sessions themselves. Mentor feedback and guidance are consistently provided to ensure continuous improvement.
• Self-Review and Evaluation: Teachers engage in a self-review process at the beginning and end of the programme. This allows them to reflect on their progress, identify areas of growth, and track their professional development. The self-review also serves as a clear demonstration of the achieved results, both for individual teachers and the school as a whole. This evidence is valuable for Ofsted inspections, showcasing the effective utilisation of the PE & Sport Premium budget and the ongoing development of teachers.

‍

By participating in our teacher CPD programme, schools benefit from a collaborative and targeted approach to enhancing PE delivery. Teachers receive personalised support and guidance, leading to improved teaching practices and enhanced outcomes for students. The self-review process ensures accountability and helps schools demonstrate the impact of their investment in professional development.

Extra curriculum

‍

Our extracurricular sports clubs present students with exciting opportunities to engage in a diverse array of sports, encouraging a healthy lifestyle. Here’s an overview of how they operate:

Club Schedule Flexibility: Clubs can be scheduled before school, after school, or during lunchtime, accommodating school preferences and student availability.

Financial Flexibility: Clubs can be funded either by parents or the school, offering financial flexibility aligned with the school’s budget and resources.

Variety of Club Options: We provide a wide range of sports, including popular team sports like football, tennis, and basketball. Additionally, students can explore dance and gymnastics, fostering creativity and body awareness. Unique options such as NERF clubs and soft archery add a fun twist to the club offerings.

Booking Management: For parent-funded clubs, we manage the entire booking process, ensuring a seamless experience for parents and efficient administration for the school.

Multi-Sports Clubs: Our multi-sports clubs, a favored choice, offer students a rotating experience of different sports. This allows them to discover new activities, develop a range of skills, and keeps the sessions dynamic and engaging.

Equipment and Attendance: Coaches use either the school’s equipment or provide their own, as agreed upon. Attendance is tracked using either the kick out clubs system or the school’s register, ensuring accurate record-keeping.

Timely Operations: Our coaches arrive 15 minutes before each session to prepare and set up. At the end of the club, students are efficiently dismissed to their next activity or to their parents, ensuring a safe and organised transition.

By providing a diverse range of sports clubs, our goal is to inspire students to lead active lives, discover their talents, and develop valuable physical and social skills. Our experienced coaches create a positive and inclusive environment, fostering a love for sports and promoting the overall well-being of students.

Alternative Curriculum

‍

Our alternative curriculum program offers tailored support for SEND or vulnerable students, encouraging active participation in education through sports. Here’s a breakdown of how it operates:

‍

1. Individualised Sessions: Our skilled coaches collaborate closely with a designated student, conducting personalised sessions crafted to engage and support their unique needs. Working in tandem with your school, we design a customised program targeting specific areas such as confidence, resilience, and social skills. Through individualised attention and guidance, our goal is to empower students to overcome challenges and achieve success both academically and personally.
2. Small Group Interventions: Our alternative curriculum extends to small group sessions that focus on specific cohorts of students. These sessions delve into various skills, including team building, resilience, and the art of losing, among others. Covering a wide range of topics, these interventions aim to enhance social interactions, emotional well-being, and personal development. The duration of these interventions can be adjusted based on the unique needs and goals of the students and the school.

By integrating sports and physical activities into the alternative curriculum, we create an engaging and dynamic learning environment for students. The hands-on nature of sports facilitates the development of crucial life skills such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and self-discipline.
