A not for profit organisation which looks to promote the benefits of sport and physical activity to all young people. A strong emphasis on how sports can be used to engage YP and improve mental health

My main roles in school are as the Key stage Lead and as the Physical Education Lead. My role as the key stage lead involves me overseeing five classes in an SEMH setting, where I am responsible for overseeing the development of pupils and staff within my team. My main duties are to ensure the pupils within my key stage feel safe in school and are in a position where they feel secure enough to show progress in learning and behaviour. Due to the nature of our pupils complex needs I ensure staff work effectively with our young children to help them develop as young people. To do this I am part of the performance management team and specifically work with two teachers within my phase.In my role as the PE lead I am responsible for developing the intended curriculum and monitoring the implemented curriculum. As well as this I also work with outside agencies to improve the physical and sporting opportunities our pupils receive and monitor and evidence this through our sports premium evidence against the key indicators. I am also currently working as an NQT mentor for a member of staff within the PE department. To do this I support my trainee with lesson observations, modelling teaching and through evidencing his teacher standards.

My main roles in the school involve leading the PE curriculum in terms of planning and teaching throughout the school. I also have some involvement in other sporting activites which are not in school, i.e Teams / tournament events which our pupils may participate in. I also teach numeracy on a daily basis to the class group where I am based.

This is a specialist BESD school for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties. My current role is training as PE teacher which I will complete by July 2012

During my time at the club I worked as an assistant manager for the under 8's and 9's for a total of three seasons. During this time I led training sessions based around the FA technical and tactical requirements and selected teams for match-days while monitoring each players "match time & performance". This allowed us linked in with training performances offer the players good feedback throughout assessments.

During my time with the agency I worked in a number of mainstream and SEN schools. This job required me to go into any schools which required cover / extra support, this provided me with lots of learning opportunities in a teaching assistant role. The job also required that on some days I would be asked to lead classes.
