Summerlea CP School Growing thoughtful learners and independent thinkers

Key Stage 1 Quality Start Award

Key Stage 1 Quality Start Award

This academic year, the PE team have been working hard to achieve 'Key Stage 1 Quality Start Award', which is an accolade that Summerlea has not achieved before. The award is tiered from bronze to platinum and each tier involves particular criteria that the school must show evidence for, in order to gain that level of the award. This academic year has seen a range of new additions to PE at Summerlea, including; Key Stage 1 Sports Leaders, who have worked tirelessly in learning leadership skills as well as rules of games so that they can run in-school events, a Key Stage 1 Inter-house tournament, in which members of Years 1 and 2 competed against each other in a dodge-ball tournament, the re-introduction of the Healthy Army, which allowed the children to learn about healthy foods and the sugar tax, and the continuation of Key Stage 1 representatives at locality sports events. All of these elements are just a small proportion of the things that Summerlea have done to work towards the Quality Start Award and the PE team are very proud to say that Summerlea have recently achieved GOLD in this award! A fantastic achievement for the school and we are looking forward to working towards platinum next year.
