Schools

At Exeter CITY Community Trust we deliver a variety of projects for children either as part of the school day, or through larger schemes using school facilities as a community hub. Many of these opportunities are free and any paying sessions are kept to a minimum cost to ensure they remain accessible to all.

Curriculum PE

As part of our Exeter Primary Stars programme our coaches work with teachers to help them gain confidence and develop their skills in delivering a wide-ranging and balanced PE curriculum. We have in place, and can create, schemes of work to grow pupils’ physical literacy (their agility, balance and coordination) as well as their everyday life skills.

PPA

We can provide:

• an affordable solution to PPA cover, using a minimum of Level 2-qualified coaches and staff
• A range of sports and games, including hockey, netball, rugby, football, tennis, cricket, rounders and athletics and more
• Schemes of work and lesson plans based on the National Curriculum.

Cross Curricular

We use football as a vehicle to support pupils who need to improve their numeracy and literacy skills. Players statistics, stadium attendances and transfer fees are just a few examples of methods we use to engage and develop pupils’ knowledge.

We also use the vast array of football literature available to us, whether it be a simulated post-match conference, written transfer request or half time team talk. These sessions are aimed at pupils who need a little extra support and will also be rewarded by the end of the programme, which tends to last six to 10 weeks.

School sport competitions

Combined with our PE delivery and after school sports clubs, we run a number of inter-school competitions. We have previously delivered handball, football, futsal and netball encouraging pupils to work on communication, collaboration and competition – all which will help to develop life skills.

Please see the Tournaments section of our site for forthcoming events.

Enrichment days at the Park

We host collapsed curriculum days for schools covering subject areas like numeracy or literacy. We also run healthy eating themed days, or workshops aimed at improving pupils’ confidence and nurturing their ambitions.
