UPDATE: The deadline is approaching for the Perins Coach award and polo orders. To gain a place on the course please give consent on Scopay by 9am Thursday 30th June at the latest.
Students currently in Year 9 have the option next year (in Year 10) of participating in the Perins Sports Coaching Award. The Sports coaching course is delivered over the whole of Year 10. Students on the course participate in sports coaching for 1 out of their 2 hours in core P.E. time.
The start of the course is based at Perins where students learn how to deliver a successful coaching session relating to such aspects as communication, organisation, and safety. As the course progresses students take greater ownership of their lessons building into the summer term when they visit local primary schools and work with primary school children in a variety of sports and activities.
The course is an excellent introduction to students interested in coaching sports and gives students an opportunity to plan, prepare and lead sports coaching sessions designed for younger children. Students on the course benefit by taking increased responsibility within lessons which will help to improve confidence and knowledge of sport.
We are asking for voluntary contributions of £5.00 per student to cover the cost of student logbooks and certificates on successful completion of the course (please note the course is assessed as a pass or fail based on teacher observation, quality of written work and potential external assessment by other PE teachers). Although these contributions are voluntary, please note that if we do not receive sufficient contributions, we will be unable to offer the course.
We also offer students the opportunity to purchase “Perins Coach” polo shirts, which are navy and have PERINS COACH embroidered on the back. The polo shirts can be worn for PE lessons, visits to primary schools and after-school clubs. The polo shirts are by no means compulsory, but we offer them as students like to be distinguished and as an alternative to the white polo shirt, this is the only chance to order one. Students participating in the course may also wear Perins PE kit. The cost of a polo shirt is £14.10, sizes available small, medium, and large (we have sample sizes available in the PE office should your son/daughter wish to try for sizing) Please contact Mrs Cobb in advance to view samples. cobb@perins.hants.sch.uk
If the PE department believes that the behaviour and attitude of a student is of such a concern that it raises questions about the participation, safety, and enjoyment of the course by others in attendance, then we reserve the right to not offer a place or remove a student prior to or during the course.
Please note this is the only opportunity to purchase a Perins Coach polo shirt. Please place order by 9am Thursday 30th June.
