What is SEPEP?
This term in PE, we’re doing a program called SEPEP, which stands for Sport Education in Physical Education Program. It’s a different and fun way of learning where instead of just doing drills or playing games led by the teacher, we run our own sports competition
Our class has been split into 4 teams, and each team plays against the others across the term. But SEPEP isn’t just about playing the sport. Everyone in the class has a specific role to help run the season. Some students are coaches, who lead training and help their team improve. Others are referees, managers, fitness trainers, or part of the media and stats team who keep score and write match reports.
The sport we chose to focus on this term is hockey. Each week, we train and play matches against each other. It
SEPEP is a great way to learn not only how to play the sport better, but also to build important skills like leadership, teamwork, communication, and responsibility. Everyone has a part to play, and the whole class works together to make the season a success.
SEPEP helps students in many ways, both on and off the field. It teaches us how to work as a team, make decisions, and take on leadership roles. Because everyone has a job like coach, umpire, manager, or media officer we all learn to take responsibility and do our part. It also helps us improve our communication skills, since we need to plan, solve problems, and support each other. By running the games ourselves, we understand how real sports competitions work and what goes into organising them. SEPEP gives everyone a chance to be involved, not just the most athletic students, so it helps build confidence, fairness, and respect for others.
