Medium Term Plan - Netball - Year 11

The Year 11 Netball medium-term plan, designed for Key Stage 4 students, spans six lessons with the intent to enhance core skills, apply them in competitive situations, and foster an understanding of healthy, active lifestyles. The plan aims to develop students' physical and mental capacities, enabling them to evaluate and provide feedback on performances, prepare for tournaments, and participate both as officials and competitors. Students begin at an emerging level, where they engage in competitive games and simple scoring roles, progressing through developing and mastering stages, where they learn to use a variety of core skills, work effectively in teams, and demonstrate tactical awareness.

Knowledge acquired through the course includes decision-making, skill execution, and an understanding of game rules and sanctions. The skills focus encompasses passing, receiving, footwork, shooting, marking, intercepting, and dodging. The learning sequence builds on fundamental skills in pressurised game situations to enhance tactical planning and independent decision-making. The curriculum covers key concepts such as outwitting opponents, developing physical and mental capacity, replicating advanced skills, problem-solving, and personal development. The scheme of work also highlights the importance of sportsmanship and the benefits of an active lifestyle, while pointing students towards potential careers in the sports industry. Each week's lesson is structured with objectives, activities, and assessment tools to ensure a comprehensive learning experience.
