I do like the schemes of work and planning but I have found with the Foundation stage unit such as Bats and Balls - circus skills to relate this to our children has not been possible as our children do not have experiences like this!

iPEP provides easy to follow lesson plans; quite literally a pick up and go system that is user friendly. Offering videos and images of key parts of lessons, it provides teachers with tools to deliver high quality PE. However, some lessons require more dynamic activities/content.
George Howe found iPEP:
- Reduces teacher workload“Time spent planning and preparing PE lessons is reduced as lesson content is instantly available, right through from learning objectives through to cooldown activities and next steps.”
- Provides school data“IPEP allows you to run whole school reports of PE data, for example letting you quickly compare against national averages and view target groups of children.”
- Improves teaching efficiency
- Builds student knowledge“As sessions and lessons progress, iPEP provides "teaching points" which include key questions for the children in the lesson, encouraging them to question what they're doing and to develop their understanding of sport and PE.”

It's good but I'd like to be able to revisit a lesson once you have clicked complete. Also I've added an additional unit of cricket this term as it became available to us but cannot add objectives or evidence so I've had to put it into the materials unit.
Karina Hassan found ipep:

I think the gymnastics lesson plans could be improved. The assessment tracker is great, and the way of checking that staff are using it on the main account is super. Some of the videos don't match up with the lessons, so that could be improved. Some lessons are quite basic for the children, and they don't end up challenging the more able children as much as they could.
Olivia found ipep:
- Reduces teacher workload“Easier assesment when it comes to report writing”
- Builds student knowledge“Some of the conversation starters are really good, and it can help teachers who aren't very sporty”

- Provides school data“Individual pupil data over the year is great”
