The findings are included in this interim report and the final impact will be evaluated summer 2007 when these pupils receive their Y6 SATs results.

UK Ultimate Leaders' WorkshopThe latest UK Ultimate Leaders' Workshop saw 13 Teachers and Coaches from East Yorkshire take part in a three hour workshop, which involved:
Ultimate is a fun, non-contact invasion game that incorporates aspects from other team sports such as american football, netball and basketball. The game is played using a disk or frisbee where the object of the game is to score a goal by the attacking team completing a pass to a player standing in the oppositions end zone. The aim is to try and engage more young people in sport and physical activity by providing new alternative activities within and outside of the school timetable. If you are planning to introduce ultimate in your school/area, or would like to know enough about the game to just consider whether to do so, then this course is for you! The course has been kept deliberately simple and is entirely contained within the three hour session. It is intended to give you enough information to get started. If you are interested in the workshop or would like further information regarding ultimate then please contact: Error processing SSI file 24 October 2006Certification of the Teaching of PSHEMany congratulations to the following teachers who have successfully completed this programme of professional development and recognition of teaching.
