Beth Bowers
PE Teacher, SPIN School Sports Partnership, Kirklees
The Gymnastics course was very helpful to me as I haven’t done much gymnastics before. My confidence in gymnastics was very low, but after doing the course I now teach gymnastics once a week at a primary school and feel confident in what I am teaching. I now understand the different disciplines and how to teach them, along with the brilliant warm ups we learnt through stories which is great for the younger kids. I am currently teaching sequences and the children love it- I can even do a few examples myself! This course will help anyone who is teaching in primary schools, even those for secondary schools so they know what level pupils should be at.
