Focused on three key areas:
– Mental health and building emotional resilience
– Diabetes Awareness
– Nutrition and Healthy Eating
AJB Sports in Education have created a unique physically active learning program called Active Minds.
Our programme is specifically designed to raise awareness of critical areas of health and well being. Using our many years of experience working in schools and teaching young children, and in partnership with leading healthcare professionals in various fields, we have produced a ground breaking collection of programmes that we feel will better prepare the next generation to live long, healthy, happy and active lives.
OUR PROGRAMMES
How can we help your school?
Whether weekly class programs over an academic year, small group drop in sessions after school, or interventions focused on a core group of children, we work with your school to ensure we are meeting your needs and requirements most effectively.
Each lesson involves a mix of ‘circle time chats’, where pupil’s are encouraged to discuss the lesson topic, interspersed with physically active and fun games. We have found this approach positively enhances not only each child’s enjoyment of the session, but sees them interact and engage much more effectively with the process.
Many schools have found that ACTIVE MINDS is a great way to utilise their Pupil Premium or Primary PE and School Sports Premium.
