CfE

This hybrid Sport Education/CfE idea was also tried out with s4 core basketball and s4 standard grade dance.

This idea is not new. All these ideas have floated around before. This is just a format to try and bring many of the ideas together in a hybrid model which appears to fit in well with level 4.
