Progressive Sports have been supporting our school, Barley Close, for many years. What started out as PE coaching has developed to a close partnership covering all aspects of school life. As well as supporting staff CPD they run a variety of sports clubs but can offer a variety of sports, if we want a specific sport they will find a coach who can deliver.
They have adapted with the ever changing challenges schools face- health and wellbeing is a huge area for our pupils so we spoke to Progressive Sports- they now offer us ELSA, weekly well being sessions, mentoring support and as they are all amazing role models to our young people the impact is incredible. We can see children growing in confidence, building better relationships and even in lockdown this work continued virtually. We also use them for PPA cover, so not only sport they follow our subject plans, our curriculum and school policies.
It in nutshell nothing is too much trouble or impossible and we are lucky and very proud that they are part of our school community.
