[Beth]: I'm Beth and this is my first qualified year as a teacher. I work in Year One which is with children that are five and six years old. I absolutely love my job. As a newly qualified teacher, my strengths were in Maths and English, which we focused on very heavily throughout university. I have absolutely no confidence teaching PE. It was definitely an ambition to make myself better at it and try and get as much professional development as I could. Give me a thumbs up if you like PE. You excited?

[Children]: Yeah.

[Beth] It was something that I would probably avoid if I could and I kept every PE lesson very very very simple. The children weren't very engaged and it just wasn't happening.

[Deb]: I'm Deb O'Nair, I'm a Schools Workforce Development Officer for Stoke City Community Trust. We went through a questionnaire with her. I checked her knowledge, her skills and what we discovered is that her planning, delivery and assesment of the pupils in PE, was something that she needed to work on.

[Beth]: So in the first lesson, Deb did all the planning,sent it across to me so I could have a look at it so I was prepared and then she took the lesson, which was really good for me to see.

[Deb]: Heads up, tummies in, looking strong. Are we ready for this jump?

[Children]: Yes.

[Deb]: Ready...jump. And then the second lesson, she planned the lesson but I planned the warm up and then as we went on, we took over and she would observe and feed back to us. It feels fantastic to be able to sit there with them at the end of the day and look through the tablet pictures and things that they've taken and the different moves that they've been doing and they see me as being able to teach them a really good session of PE which I've never felt from children before.

[Lorna]: My name's Lorna and I'm the Deputy Headteacher.The transformation from when she's received the support is phenomenal.The behaviour management techniques that she's picked upand also techniques in terms of pace of lessons, that's really starting to shine throughin her other curriculum areas as well. The children are so enthusiastic within her sessionsand that has a massive impact throughout the school.

[Beth]: I never thought I'd be so so confident speaking about things, and be motivated to do PE and the children are engaged. The effect that that has had on my teaching career is absolutely amazing.
