How can De-TURF benefit your school?

How can De-TURF benefit your School/College?

Our workshops have been designed to meet curriculum requirements across all 4 key stages and can be developed to meet the needs of any class, regardless of age gender or ability. The requirements of each class will be discussed before hand, however we have produced a list below to identify the key skills De-TURF can develop in participants.

What does the National Curriculum state across all 4 key stages?

Key stage 1

Pupils should be taught to:

master basic movements including running, jumping, throwing and catching, as well as developing balance, agility and co-ordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activitiesperform dances using simple movement patterns

Key stage 2

Pupils should be taught to:

use running, jumping, throwing and catching in isolation and in combination develop flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance [for example, through athletics and gymnastics] perform dances using a range of movement patterns

Key stage 3

Pupils should be taught to:

develop their technique and improve their performance in other competitive sports [for example, athletics and gymnastics] perform dances using advanced dance techniques in a range of dance styles and forms

Key stage 4

Pupils should be taught to:

develop their technique and improve their performance in other competitive sports [for example, athletics and gymnastics] or other physical activities [for example, dance]

In line wth these requirements, De-TURF will encourage participants to:

Develop their co-ordination, sense of timing and rhythm by moving the body in harmony individually and with others
Use both right and left side dominant routines/movements to develop technique in a variety of sports.
Utilise basic PE equipment in a way that encourages the body to move safely, developing techniques and skills that can be transferred into sporting activity and everyday movements
Develop their physical and spatial awareness by focussing attention on movement and relationship to others in a restricted space
Develop their endurance, stamina, balance, agility and flexibility to improve general fitness and body alignment.
Enhance their self-confidence and self-esteem through creative dance forms, movements and exercise.
Be introduced to new styles of dance and methods of exercising, by approaching fitness as a creative and fun activity
Engage their creative thinking skills by allowing participants to develop their own routines and movements with equipment
Progress through different levels of physical activity at a pace that is appropriate and suits their life style and needs
Work outside their comfort zone and experience new movement forms to enhance their dance vocabulary
Develop skills to observe, listen and follow instruction to execute a sequence of movement.
Enhance communication, problem solving and team work skills as part of group activities
Improve presentation and performance skills by sharing work with each other
