Coaching in Education
stay on the ball in school.
Football plays an important role within schools, colleges and universities. From the first day at school until the last day at university.
Gloucestershire FA offer programmes, initiatives and schemes to provide teachers and coaches at every stage of education the tools to inspire new generations to love the game.
The FA Lidl Skills programme works in over 2500 primary schools each year, providing lessons for the children against the requirements of the PE National Curriculum and supports teachers’ professional learning.
As well as helping to develop the technique, ball skills and confidence of children in primary schools, The FA Skills coaches aim to pass on invaluable lesson ideas and guidance on the delivery of football to the pupils’ teachers.
