Reminder Action Required: MI Sheet 77/12 - Safe Practice in PE

Further to the distribution of MI Sheet 77/12, schools are reminded that Norfolk County Council is no longer in a position to purchase the 'Safe Practice in Physical Education and School Sport 2012' for every school, college and setting and that schools should act in one of two ways to ensure safe practice in PE and school sport:

1. Schools must purchase the 2012 manual from the Association for Physical Education (2012 Edition) at a cost of ½44.95 plus post etc. This is available at www.1st4sport.com. Schools must then interpret, modify and implement the new national guidance ensuring compliance accordingly.
Or
2. Schools can book a place on the Safe Practice in PE courses organised through Norfolk County Council. The cost of the one-day expert led session is ½163 for Norfolk LA Maintained schools (½184 for all other clients including Academies, Free Schools and out of county settings) and includes the full afPE Safe Practice Manual. We strongly recommend that schools use this approach to ensure that their practice matches national and local guidance.

Course dates will be in July and September at Norwich PDC and West Norfolk PDC - visit www.cpd.norfolk.gov.uk/sdms (course reference: ECSJ6).
