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:
- Significantly 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.”
- Significantly 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.”
- Slightly improves teaching efficiency
- Moderately 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.”

The planning is very good, but can be repetitive. The assessment is great. There could be more choice of units. Some of the videos are not great quality.

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:
- Does not significantly reduce teacher workload“Can sometimes add as there is no way to go back to a lesson, alter objectives which can make assessment a little inaccurate at times.”
- Moderately builds student knowledge“breaks lessons down nicely”
- Significantly improves teaching efficiency and productivity“lots of ideas, easy to follow, pics/diagrams/video clips”
- Moderately improves school processes“everything is in one place and can be accessed both at school and home”
- Moderately provides school data“when used correctly by staff, yes”

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:
- Slightly reduces teacher workload“Easier assesment when it comes to report writing”
- Moderately builds student knowledge“Some of the conversation starters are really good, and it can help teachers who aren't very sporty”
- Slightly improves teaching efficiency and productivity“Lesson plans saves time for staff, however some lessons are very similar or don't help the children improve their skills that much”
- Slightly improves school processes“I don't know”
- Moderately provides school data“Individual pupil data over the year is great”
