How could you use TT Kidz in your school?
TT Kidz has been designed to be delivered on indoor, outdoor table tennis tables and even classroom tables. It is extremely flexible; students don’t even need to change into their PE kit.
This programme does not require a large space and therefore it can be delivered in a classroom. The activity cards offer both “on” and “off” the table games to enjoy. The roll-nets can be purchased through a kit bag or are sold separately to make playing on a classroom table simple.
TT Kidz can be delivered to suit your academic structure, as a lunch-time or after-school club. The TT Kidz programme provides schools with eight hours of content which can be split up any way that fits.
TT Kidz has been thoughtfully designed to meet the requirements of the national curriculum. Therefore, this programme can be enjoyed by students in their regular PE sessions.
Who can deliver TT Kidz in schools?
- TT Kidz can be delivered by any teacher who has completed the TT Kidz for school’s online course. The course provides training on topics such as; the rules of table tennis, how to make the sessions inclusive, and session ideas. In addition, schools can be linked up with coaches that already deliver TT Kidz in their clubs and therefore schools may decide to have an external coach come in and deliver the session.
How many pupils can take part in a TT Kidz session?
- The number of pupils that can take part in a TT Kidz is largely based on the school’s capacity e.g., the playing space/ classroom space, the number of bats and balls available, and the number of available staff.
How do I book a staff member onto a TT Kidz for School’s workshop?
- Once your school purchases a school kitbag you will receive information and log-in details on how to book onto the TT Kidz for schools’ online course via email. Once a school receives their log-in details there is no limit to how many staff members at that school that can complete the online TT Kidz for school’s course.
