AfPE are aware that the latest Government guidance document; ‘returning to schools’, 29th September has raised many questions for workforce colleagues in PE & Physical Activity.
Please see below some of the key points and AfPEs suggested approach. They are keen to stress that within the educational context, gov.uk is the only source for guidance documents and should be checked regularly.
PE in the curriculum
Gov UK: Schools must do everything possible to minimise contacts and mixing while delivering a broad and balanced curriculum.
PE & Sport beyond the curriculum
The DfE guidance says “Both the approaches of separating groups and maintaining distance are not ‘all-or-nothing’ options and will still bring benefits even if implemented partially. Some schools may keep children in their class groups for the majority of the classroom time, but also allow mixing into wider groups for specialist teaching, wraparound care and transport.”
