Our Goal
To create a national movement of schools that drive individual and whole school improvement through the different specialist areas of: inclusion, Leadership Coaching Volunteering (LCV), achievement and wellbeing that are formally aligned to the Youth Sport Trust and positioned to support our mission.

- Advocate the impact of the specialist area(s) on young people’s wellbeing, leadership, and achievement
- Pioneer school-centered innovation, based on action research to influence national strategies and practice
- Develop, test, and deliver specialist interventions and learning that create transformational change in schools and communities
Our Offer
- Opportunities to work nationally with leading experts in PE, school sport and physical activity to enhance the health, wellbeing, and achievements of students
- National recognition as a pioneering network of schools driving the specialist area(s) forward in England
- Direct investment into schools through training, resources, equipment, and engagement with positive role models (subject to funding)
