National School Sports Week is dedicated to promoting the physical, mental, and social wellbeing of children and young people through 60 minutes a day of PE, sport, and play. Since its inception in 2008, National School Sports Week has been the heartbeat of promoting PE, physical activity, and school sports, helping to nurture young talents to reach their full potential.

Participating in National School Sports Week isn’t just about scoring goals or winning races; it’s about fostering a culture of health, wellbeing, and inclusivity within your school community. By getting involved, you’ll not only encourage your students to lead healthier, more active lives but also promote teamwork, leadership, and resilience—all essential skills for success in school and beyond.
