The School Games
The School Games is a national programme designed to make a positive difference in the lives of young people through sport and physical activity. School Games activities are designed to be inclusive, adaptable and promote 60 active minutes of exercise for all pupils. The School Games promotes the values of Respect, Honesty, Passion, Determination, Teamwork, Self-Belief and focuses on ensuring ALL young people are able to access sport in a meaningful and positive way. We know that some young people don’t feel included in the usual ways schools offer sport, and groups such as SEND, low socio-economic, girls and people from ethnic diverse communities often miss out on opportunities. As such the School Games aims to tackle these inequalities through use of youth voice and data to run engaging and inspiring events for these groups.
School Games also promotes Physical Literacy; how we move, think, feel and connect with physical activity throughout our lives. Physical Literacy is about how positive experiences in sport, PE and everyday movement affects our view of whether being active feels good or not.
School Games supports Physical Literacy through promoting positive experiences, providing ways for children to remain active during the school day, encouraging student voice and supporting teachers and school staff to understand the importance of Physical Literacy.
