However rather than lessons being led by the teachers, students were given the opportunity to take charge of their own learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Sport Education, students are organized into teams, which then compete against each other in various sports throughout a season. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Students were divided into teams at the start of the term with every player taking on a specific role. These included a range of coaching positions to work on bowling, batting and fielding as well as a fitness coach and as all top sports teams need, a data analyst to track their progress and a media team to ensure that the team\u2019s progress and results were well documented and publicised.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This approach allows for students to build confidence and independence in leading their peers and taking responsibility for their own success. It fostered a lot of the \u2018soft skills\u2019 that are so important for students to develop in order to become successful global citizens such as positive communication, planning &amp; organisation, collaboration and leadership.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lessons were structured with a training session and then a match each week. Teams were able to accumulate points in both their cricket league matches as well as through weekly tasks that were set which all went towards determining a Sport Education Champion Team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like any Sports Season, we finished with an Awards Ceremony to recognise those students and teams that had really excelled either in their individual roles or as a collective team unit.
