We are thrilled to offer our schools’ brochure not just to support our district’s schools to increase pupils’ physical activity levels but also to create excitement around movement and active lifestyles through our expertise and exposure to a wide range of activities.

The Sports Trust values the recently revised definition of physical literacy as ‘our relationship with physical activity and movement throughout life and aligns with our mission to create a lifelong love of sport and physical activity’. This definition, as well as creating a structure for Sport England to achieve ambitions outlined in their ‘Uniting the Movement’ strategy, will support our charity to ensure we dig deep to provide positive experiences for young people that are inclusive, and fun and support the development of life skills.

This definition also reminds us that our time spent in school is a critical window for children and young people to develop a positive relationship with movement.
