Fundamental Movements Programme

Leicestershire County Council's Public Health department are seeking to procure a provider to develop a Fundamental Movement programme and deliver training sessions to equip practitioners with the skills, knowledge & confidence to provide physical development opportunities for children in Early Year settings.

Early year settings are defined as including private, voluntary & independent organisations and Children's Centres across Leicestershire. The development of Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) does not happen by chance or maturation alone; children need opportunity and guidance within a supportive learning atmosphere.

The training will be for all practitioners working with or associated with early years settings and with an interest in the physical development of under 5's.
