Being Active
(Category: Wellbeing Initiatives)
This initiative provides opportunities for schools to purchase equipment
that will support students in being physically active. Research suggests that student involvement with physical activity in school can reduce anxiety, improve social skills and also enhance their self-confidence. Schools engaging with this initiative may consider purchasing sports equipment suitable for the needs of all students, introducing a new sport to your school, going to an outdoor activity centre or holding a sports day.
