• Devolved Formula Capital: funding for schools which is spent of capital projects

• Targeted Capital Programmes: eg school kitchens, zero carbon exemplar school

National Foundation for Education Research (NFER)

• Pre and post survey of 200 pupils conducted at a new BSF school found the following:

• The number of pupils who felt safe increased from 57% to 87%

• The number of pupils who felt proud increased from 43% to 77%

• In both surveys, PE came out on top as the favourite subject - but with a 14% increase stimulated by the improved PE and sports facilities.

• Attainment: Oxclose Community school Sunderland 41% to 62 % A* to C GCSE

“Technological change in the 21st Century will happen 1,000 times more quickly than in the 20th. By 2030, some believe the total sum

of human knowledge will be available through a single personal device”

Futurologist, Ray Kurzweil - Sept, 2005

Just think… • 85% of the total school’s estate in England was built before 1975 • The first DTI ICT initiative was introduced in 1981/2 (one computer.

per school) • The Top 10 jobs in 2010 will not have existed in 2004 • 84% of young people play computer games at least once a fortnight

- 72% of teachers never play computer games • Children entering school this year were born more than 11/12 years

after the invention of the web – it is old technology to them • More schools have been built or rebuilt in the last 5 years than had

previously been built or rebuilt in the past 25 years. • Undergraduates on a 4 year ICT course are ‘out of date’ at the start

of their third year of study.

Recent developments • 22 companies shortlisted for the new Contractors’ Framework • Minimum Design Standard (MDS) launched in May 2009 –

Only designs graded by the CABE school design panel as ‘very good’ or ‘pass’ will be able to proceed through procurement and into construction

• Launch of the Transformation Trust – a new independent education charity set up by PfS. Projects funded will support extra-curricular activities for students in new BSF learning environments to help them develop new skills, and to increase self-esteem and confidence

Current & Future developments

• External reports - Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and the CBI (June)

• Co-location fund - £200m • Capital Investment Change Programme – extension of

PfS’ role across other schools capital programmes during 2009

• Operational LEP Review - a toolkit of nine Practitioner Notes on issues including effective partnering behaviours will be available to download from the PfS website shortly

CBI Report - 18th June 2009

“The CBI has today published its second report into the Building Schools for the Future programme in which it states that ‘significant improvements’ have been made since their 2008 report and that ‘early indicators of academic performance and pupil behaviour in these [BSF] schools are very positive.”

Co-location Fund

• The Government has unveiled 101 projects that will receive a cut of its £200m programme to encourage councils to “co-locate” more facilities as part of the Building Schools for the Future programme.

• The announcement also included £3.09m for sports goods giant Adidas to set up nine or more so-called ‘Adizones’ as a public-private partnership to enable one council in each region to encourage sport and leisure activities in the runup to the 2012 Olympic Games.

Forthcoming diary dates:

• 12 November: Excellence in BSF Awards 2009 – details on the categories and how to enter will be available in June. Comedian Dara Ó Briain is confirmed as host for the evening

• 24 November: PfS Design Conference at the British Museum

Strategically Planning PE and Sport within BSF

Opportunities for PE & Sport Where do we want to be in 15-20 years time?

… but Transformation!

Not Modernisation…

Transformation – What is it?

• Is it a noun or a verb? • Is it a process or a statement? • Is it a journey or a destination? • Can you give an example of transformation in

PE in your teaching experience? • Could your learners explain a transformational

experience in PE?

Transforming Learning • Provision: site, buildings, specialist facilities

• Opportunities: Learning experiences, curriculum pathways, joined up services, different pedagogies, culture and organisation

• Outcomes: Impact, standards of progress, skills, attainment, qualities, competencies, community regeneration, ECM

Transformation Pyramid (microsoft)

Transformation

Relative Innovation

Incremental Innovation

What sort of learners do we want?

Successful learners who make progress

and achieve Confident individuals who lead safe and

healthy lives

Responsible citizens who make a positive

contribution to society

QCA: The ‘big picture’ of the curriculum

WHEN?

Time is allocated according to learning need

WHAT?

Learning activities are selected to promote the aims of the curriculum

and to maximise learners’ progress

WHO?

A range of people are involved in providing learning experiences

WHERE?

Learning takes place in a range of contexts and

settings

THE LEARNER

Learning activities are arranged to help all learners meet the curriculum aims and

achieve well

HOW?

Methods and approaches fit the needs of learners and the ways in which

people learn

The Blueprint for a World Class Curriculum

The needs of the learner are central to the curriculum. The blueprint explores the dimensions that allow the curriculum to focus on the learners’ needs, meet its overall aims and ensure the highest

achievement for all.

Just think…

Or outdoors?

Current Secondary Playground Provision? 2008

Less Of This

What should they look like in the 21st Century?

BSF Offers The Ideal Opportunity For Change

More Of This

So what will inform our decision making process?

How do we make the journey? From: To:

• Location specific • Any time, any place

• Teacher-led • Learner-led

• Instructional learning • Personalised learning

• Subject-led • Problem-solving-led

• Learners as consumers of content

• Learners as creators of content

• Single school, home-brewed ICT • Wide-scale, industrial strength ICT

Think about... • Move from subject based faculty to a ‘stage not age’ model. • Cluster learning spaces in a small number of ‘families’ • Isomorphism v Diversification - challenge the isomorphic state of

‘schools’ to move to a more diverse stance. • Move from teaching to learning • Develop the process of learning to learn (metacognition) • Pedagogy or Andragogy

Secondary Head teacher – • “We need to think about the process of learning rather than the

content of learning”

PEDAGOGIES

Move from didactic to flexible

Young people as teachers

Young people learning how to learn

Stage not age

Mixed age classes

Vertical groups Flexibility

towards co-ed approach

Vocational courses running facilities (leisure, catering etc.)

Action research, dialectic

Teacher as Facilitator, Enabler, Mentor and Coach

Teacher = coach, community leader, mentor, athlete, pupil, external professional etc.

Think about ‘learning spaces’ in PE

• ‘Classrooms’ or ‘learning spaces’? • Physical (indoor and outdoor) and/or virtual learning spaces? (ESP

Pilot at KS3 Derby City LA) • What does ‘flexible’ and ‘adaptable’ mean in the context of a

learning space for PE? (ASB squash, portable swimming pools, rotational mobile climbing walls, changing rooms that aren’t changing rooms see photo))

• What specialist learning spaces are essential (BB98)? • What form can generic learning spaces take? • Will the learning space for introductory sessions be different to the

spaces needed for extended learning? • How can learning spaces support collaborative working? • How can learning spaces support personalised learning? • Could ‘corridors’ and ‘changing rooms’ be learning spaces?

The Hub – Regents Park

“Face on the stage, or Guide by the side”

• Didactic v Facilitator • Subject delivery model v student access model • Learning to Move, Moving to Learn • Isomorphic v Diversification

Questions, questions? What sort of education do we want to see in the future? What sort of learning relationships do we want to foster? What competencies do we want learners to develop? What tools and resources are available to us to support, and

enhance learning? Where do learners want their learning to take place? What are the learning outcomes our learners will need? Who is best placed to lead the learning? Who will learners learn with? Who will learners learn from? How will learners learn?

Re-Imagining Learning Spaces - Futurelab, 2006

More questions… What buildings do we want? How many classrooms do we need? How many playing fields do we need? What size pool, do we need? Can we just have our entitlement -default

to BB98 What facilities do we need to deliver the

curriculum?

Transformation? • RSA Academy, Tipton • 5 Terms • Three hour ‘lessons’ • Classes of 90 pupils • AM/PM curriculum • Learning Plaza (Kent) • Hugh Christie Technology College in Kent is a

trailblazing school (staggered school day, project based curricula)

Innovative Options • Speedminton (www.speedminton.co.uk) • Brushboarding (www.brushboarding.co.uk) • TigerTurf (www.tigerturfworld.com) • ASB Squash Courts • Swimming Pools (portable) • Goals (flexible spaces) • ESP - Derby City Outdoor Learning space • Rowing Djanogly Nottingham • MUSAs • Crazy Catch www.crazycatch.com/uk www.flicx.co.uk • Freedom Climber (www.freedomclimber.com)

What could that look like? • Tibshelf Community Sports College Wave

3 – Derbyshire. • Indoors: One activity hall of 250m2 and

three at 150/160m2 – possibly reduced due to affordability.

• Outdoors: covered area the same size as a 4 court sport hall

Why Change?

• Every Child Matters • Personalised Learning • Curricular Organisation • ICT • Integrated services • Inclusion • 14-19 Agenda • Workforce Reform • Extended schools

Educational Drivers for Change:

“Teachers are not resistant to change, they are resistant to

being changed!” • McKinsey’s - 7 stage Model of Change

Management • Kurk Lewin’s - Three stage model • Kotter’s - 8 step theory for change • Prosci’s theory of Change • Common theme - “shared values”

The aim is to assess whether the scheme submitted by the local authority meets the strategic objectives of BSF and fits in the context of an authority’s whole school’s estate.

SfC 1 - Q17. “Is there evidence that consultation has begun with the PE and Sport Stakeholder Group and others concerning the strategic development of sports facilities within their area?” SfC Part 2 (a) B2 – Formal and statutory consultation has begun. PE and Sport SHG in place F2 - Delivery against PSA targets

SfC Part 2 (b) L4 – Integrated approach to community facilities & consideration of the outcomes of the PE and Sport SHG O1 - Consultation and Managing the Process

Strategic Planning Tools

‘Power’ User Analysis

Demographic Analysis

Design – reflect new trends in participation

• Stimulating ‘hard to reach’ kids

• Innovative approaches to design

• PE curriculum / new trends

• ‘Action’ Sports (MacMillan Academy)

• Personal ‘lifestyle’ activities

• Flexible space / arts / dance

• Integrate ICT – make it interesting

‘Flexible Spaces for Physical Learners’

What sort of facilities do we want to see?

• Not one size fits all – potential hub / specialist sites • Based on strategic need – sustainable • Maximises whole site – external and internal, formal and

informal • Promotes physical activity • Future Proof – Flexible but useful • Encourage community use • Appropriate for different types of Learners • Utilises ICT

• Fulfils needs of partners – Clubs etc.

Examples: • Telford - Hadley Learning Community, (3 schools) • Knowsley - Learning Centres, (FF) • Liverpool - St Margaret’s, (cricket) • Bristol LEP model, Leisure centre • Newcastle Benfield refurb (20m pool, gymnastics HPC), • ASB squash courts, Bramhall High School, Stockport, Drama • Leicester, ITI, wheelchair basketball, pool and sports hall • Penryn, Cornwall £1.4 million additional funding • Queen Elizabeth’s Sports College Dorset £34 million BSF Pathfinder

Leisure centre with hockey, PCT on site, ICT for ITT • ESP - Derby City Outdoor Learning Space • MacMillan Academy Middlesborough - Outdoor learning • Swimming pool rationalisation – Rotherham, Nottingham, Telford
