Our specialist coaches deliver PE to meet the national curriculum in numerous schools. We believe children should have access to specialist trained coaching to ensure we meet the health and physical needs of our young people.
Our coaches use animation and imagination to capture the children’s attention to make sure they are fully engaged in each session.
Sessions are tailored to suit the needs of the school and can be modified to fit into your school’s preference.
Budgets are tight and schools are under pressure. We provide our team to deliver fundraisers within your school. These popular events provide schools with the financial support to run programmes that were previously unattainable.
Call us today to discuss your schools needs.
