Description
Summary:	Broom Leys Primary School in Coalville, Leicestershire shows how a primary school can maintain high standards in keeping its pupils safe. Jennette Lathbury, an NQT, receives advice on gymnastics from a specialist coach, boosting her confidence and competence in teaching gymnastics. Her training is part of a scheme to promote gymnastics teaching throughout the NW Leicestershire School Sport Partnership. The scheme is already paying dividends, and has resulted in an inter-schools beginners gymnastics competition. Broom Leys has improved the competence and confidence of staff by using other sources of expertise within and outside the school, as well as undertaking risk assessments and ensuring pupils pay attention to their own safety. This programme visits Rawmarsh Community School, a sports college near Rotherham, and Thorpe St Andrew School in Norwich. At Rawmarsh, the programme illustrates how simple health and safety procedures can be implemented in such a way that they promote safe practice without compromising interesting, challenging lessons in traditional PE. At Thorpe St Andrew, a scuba diving class shows how those same fundamental procedures remain even when applied to more adventurous activities.
