Meet our PlayMakers
The PlayMaker Award is a great introduction into leadership, giving learners knowledge of how to organise small games and activities that can be used during curricular and extracurricular time, lunchtimes, breaks, as well as in sports clubs outside school hours.
The PlayMaker Award aims to help learners develop leadership skills such as organisation, communication and teamwork, as well as helping to build confidence and self-esteem as they take on the responsibility of assisting in leading their peers and younger children.
All of our PlayMakers have completed a full day of leadership training, and work closely with the P.E Coordinator and a professional coach, to deliver a variety of games and activities to other pupils during lunchtimes.
The current timetable they lead at lunchtime is as follows...
