Playground Activity Leaders

Why do we need it?

  • The partnership audit showed that a significant number of schools found lunchtimes could be a problem for some students, which can lead to those pupils finding it difficult to then settle back into the classroom in the afternoon.
  • Some schools reported a high number of behavioural incidents occurred at lunch times.
  • Lunch time activities can also help address the inactivity of some students, so enabling schools to work towards the government's target of two hours high quality PE and school sport per school week.

What is it?

  • Year 5 and/or six students will take part in s play leader's qualification.
  • Younger students will then benefit by the older students leading them in a variety of activities.

Target Group

  • Year 5 & 6 students are the targets to become young leaders.
  • Young Leaders can then work with any year group younger than themselves.
