The Challenge Schools Are Facing

Many schools are seeing reduced physical activity, lower resilience, and increased behaviour challenges during the school day.

Less Physical Activity

Children are spending less time being physically active, affecting strength, coordination, confidence, and overall health.

Behaviour Challenges

Unstructured playtime can lead to disengagement, conflict, and difficulty returning to the classroom.

Impact on Learning

Without meaningful physical activity, pupils often return to lessons less focused, less settled, and harder to re-engage.

Schools are looking for simple, effective ways to reintroduce purposeful physical activity, without major cost or disruption.
