Require all secondary schools to allow pupils to wear their PE kits on PE days
We want the Government to require secondary schools to allow children to wear their PE kit all day on days when they have PE, including allowing them to come into school wearing PE kits.
Introduce self-defence lessons into the PE curriculum in all secondary schools
I think all secondary schools should teach basic self-defence within PE lessons so that students not only have the skills to protect themselves, but the discipline to use those skills when necessary.
Mandate yearly exams in secondary school
Mandate end-of-year exams on core subjects in secondary schools. Students who do not meet the standards should have an opportunity to resit the year in order to ensure they understand the fundamental skills for success in following years.
Mandate all teachers in mainstream schools receive SEN & mental health training
Fund mandatory SEN and mental health training for all teachers. We are concerned that many children with special educational needs are being failed, as mainstream staff often lack the skills and qualifications to support pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs.
Require all schools to provide adaptive sports equipment for disabled pupils
Establish a statutory requirement for all schools to provide adaptive sports equipment, including a sports wheelchair, to ensure equal access to physical education for all disabled pupils and to promote inclusive physical education.
