About Derby County Community Trust
Derby County Community Trust aim to improve the lives of those in the local communities through sport, physical activity, health and education.
Derby County Community Trust (DCCT) delivers Physical Education across twenty-five partner schools in Derby, with a team of thirteen coaches. We wanted a consistent, high quality and holistic model to utilise across our partner schools. Complete PE’s resource focuses on developing the whole child through physical, cognitive and knowledge-based lesson objectives.
We also, work with a wider school’s network of sixty-five primary schools, whom we support with curriculum design. We have used Complete PE as a tool to support PE leaders with curriculum creation. Lots of these schools have then gone on to use the resource themselves. We like the ethos behind Complete PE and the fact that they are all about supporting schools instead of just selling a product. They support with our network meetings and conferences to help up-skill teachers whether they use the resource or not.
When comparing Complete PE to other schemes of work, DCCT chose Complete PE due to the holistic nature of the resource. Alongside this, the curriculum leaders’ tools such as the curriculum mapping builder, assessment tools and progression ladders are really useful to support schools to map out and implement a high-quality Physical Education curriculum.
Complete PE has enabled our team to deliver a consistent approach alongside the teachers in school may also be using Complete PE. It also means that coaches across our team save time when planning, reducing their stress and workload. This therefore allowing them to focus on delivery.
Complete PE have delivered CPD at our Network meeting as well as at our Schools conference. The training has included a “What is High Quality PE?” workshop which was popular and well received by our schools.
Our delivery staff have also received support with how to use the resource and regarding delivery of lessons to ensure holistic learning process.
Since using Complete PE, we have seen the impact of the resources spill out into our partner schools. As part of our Premier League Primary Staff Programme, our qualified PE delivery staff are expected to support primary school teachers with delivering PE to help up-skill them and increase their confidences.
We have been able to use the learning card resources to help with lesson planning which has further supported our teachers understanding of what they are looking to achieve in their outcomes for their pupils in Physical Education lessons.
Let us show you the impact Complete PE can have in your school.

Better Lessons
The quality of teaching and learning has improved across the whole school since the implementation of Complete PE. Lessons flow, have pace, pupils are appropriately challenged but most importantly, pupil’s always look forward to their PE lessons.

Active Children
The high-quality PE lessons that have now been delivered have ensured that pupils are active for longer periods of time, their lessons are more engaging and that teacher attitudes are more positive – which is also evident to the children.
Thorn Grove Primary School
High Quality Teaching
Our pupils now have access to consistently, high quality teaching across the school. The teaching staff have adopted a formative assessment approach (coloured band assessment), which is now used across the school.
