Championing insight

We will establish a research and innovation hub which evidences improvements to children’s wellbeing and achievement.

We believe in the power of sport to change young people’s lives and over the last 23 years have seen its impact first-hand. However, we understand that not everyone shares this belief; particularly those who did not have a good experience of PE and sport when they were a child and may not be able to relate to this claim themselves.

There is a real need to build a strong evidence base and to improve the way this evidence is shared in order to enhance the credibility and the acceptance of our claims.

We will not do this alone – we will work with academics, practitioners, young people and other research partners, creating a ‘community’ via a research and insight hub. Together we will amplify the strength, frequency and impact of our message – that sport, physical education and physical activity can improve children’s wellbeing, achievement and life chances.

Tactics:

• ​Accelerate our learning and extend our partnership research
• Become a leading source of evidence on the impact of sport, physical education and physical activity on children's health, happiness and life chances
• Mobilise others.
