Discover how Platinum School Games Award-winning  PE subject lead Courtenay Cowperthwaite improves  exit route opportunities for pupils

Thorpe Primary School, Leeds has been awarded the Platinum School Games Award for two years and even picked up some regional awards for PE during lockdown. The person behind this success is Courtenay Cowperthwaite, the school’s subject leader for the last 8 years.

Pupils at the school have gone on to represent their clubs at national (and one even at international) level. The school now has lots of children and families who engage with local community clubs, and has seen improvements in behaviour and attainment.

In this session, Courtenay will share some of the detail about how she has managed it.
