Delivering over 300 hours in Somerset
At Inspired Somerset we are committed to providing a range of ‘Outstanding’ services to Primary Schools within the County. Our school delivery team are dynamic, enthusiastic and motivated to deliver high quality Physical Education, supporting the fundamental development of children, continual professional development of teaching staff and raising activity levels within the school community.
We are proud to currently deliver 300 hours of P.E. provision within Somerset every week, with our philosophy of More Children, More Active, More Often at the heart of everything we do. Our belief is that every child should be given the opportunity to fall in love with P.E, supported by a dynamic scheme of work, great role models and a happy, positive environment.
For us, two key things that we need to see in our P.E. lessons our Active children and Smiles on faces!

This is time set aside in every teacher’s week for Planning, Preparation and Assessment.
This has been a wonderful opportunity for us to deliver regular lessons into our partner schools, working with children on a weekly basis to ensure that they fall in love with PE, sport and physical activity.
We believe that this can offer the perfect blend of high-quality PE provision with an external company delivering in combination with teachers to ensure the children get 2 hours of enjoyable, active PE lessons during the week.
This is fully supported by our curriculum map and schemes of work, ensuring the children are learning and progressing through various sports and activities, whilst having fun and building other vital skills such as teamwork and communication.

Workshops
Resilience
At Inspired Schools, we realise that the last 2 years has seen physical activity levels drop and also resilience in the children we teach and we want to do something about it! Recently we delivered a full day of ‘Building Resilience’ workshops and given its success we have taken the content and created a 6 week block of work for your children to take part in, consisting of 2 hours per week, delivered during a morning.

The aim of the workshops are to take children out of their comfort zone through a series of individual and team challenges, for children to be comfortable in taking risks, understanding that failure is OK, in fact it can be really positive.
Team Building
During the teambuilding workshops we want children to:
- Improve their communication skills
- Understand and have empathy for other children
- Take on different roles within a team structure
- Work effectively in different groups
- Put forward ideas and solutions
- Accept other’s opinions and thoughts
We will do the above by setting challenges and delivering outdoor sessions from orienteering to activities such as ‘crossing the river’, as well as competitive team games to see how the children respond in different environments.
£30 per hour, £60 per morning = £360 for the 6 week block
Staff CPD
Working together with class teachers, our staff will deliver high quality P.E from our P.E. Scheme of Work, supporting staff to become confident in P.E delivery within the school day.
- A chance for school staff to observe, deliver alongside and gain experience in what can be a difficult subject to teach.
- Feedback has been that seeing different activities and games, ways to organise the children and transition from activities is really useful, even for established school staff.
- We recognise that Primary Schools are experts in the classroom and we see it as a brilliant opportunity to extend this into a PE environment

PE and School Support
We also provide schools support in the following ways:
- Sports Leaders project – A bespoke sports leaders project to develop confidence in children, to enable them to support children with activity sessions at break times and lunchtimes.
- INSET days – PE specific support, either as a twilight session, or a section of an INSET day. This can be bespoke to the schools needs, but some ideas and sessions we have delivered before include:
- Behaviour management in PE
- Transitions into activities
- Managing invasion games
- Chaos in PE is ok!
- Schemes of work
- It is our aim to make our schemes of work available to all partner schools
