School Programmes
Our school programmes offer a range of ways to get more children and young people engaged in physical activity. We offer accessible lunch time and after school clubs, as well as targeted interventions for those on the SEND register. Also, enhance your PE curriculum with functional fitness learning.
Targeted Interventions
Our targeted interventions provide opportunities to support children and young people on the SEND register to make progress towards the outcomes on their IEP or EHCP. Our programmes are all unique and tailored to the needs of each individual or small group, focusing on one or more target areas for each block of six sessions.
All our programmes are also designed to incorporate executive function skills, such as working memory and problem solving, whilst ensuring sessions are fun and engaging. Where relevant, the coach can tailor their programme to support progress towards outcomes in an EHCP across all four broads areas of SEND.
Sessions include a range of functional fitness exercises focusing on areas such as:
Problem solving and decision making
Focus and attention
Gross or fine motor skills
Balance and coordination
Proprioception
Social skills, teamwork, cooperation and sense of belonging
Working memory
Self-confidence and resilience

School Clubs
Our extra curricular functional fitness provide a fun opportunity for pupils to learn new skills, make friends and engage in more physical activity.
Taking place at lunch time or after school, our clubs offer structured exercise sessions, incorporating a variety of bodyweight exercises, that encourage pupils to stay active. They are designed to help pupils build confidence, develop their social skills and improve their fitness in a relaxed and enjoyable environment.
Programmes for all our clubs are tailored to suit each school we work with. Get in touch to find out how we can meet your school’s requirements.

After School Clubs
Our after school club option are fun and full of challenge!
These sessions can run for up to 60 minutes. These longer sessions give the coach time to work on and develop new exercise skills with the students participating. A regular session will consist of:
Game: e.g. Farmers and lumberjacks
Specific warm up connected to the skills of the day.
Skill development: e.g. front squat and push press.
Workout: A chance to apply the sessions skills and use those previously learnt.
Game (to make sure everyone leaves with a smile): e.g. Raid the nest
Lunch Clubs
This clubs sessions last about 30 minutes, making it possible to fit into any schools timetable. It is fast, fun and the students definitely come away with a sweat on!
Sessions consist of a game as a warm up, followed by one or more circuit or obstacle course for the children to complete. These circuits will consist of a range of bodyweight and some light weight exercises. Every session will also finish with a game.
Example session:

Circuit 2: Roving plank, front squats, push ups

Physical Education Lessons
Enhance your pupils’ PE lessons by incorporating specialist functional fitness sessions into your school’s curriculum.
Our specialist programme has been designed to work alongside the National Curriculum with options available for KS1 to KS4. Weekly sessions can take place over a half-term or full term. The functional fitness PE lessons can be easily adapted to meet the needs of all pupils. Sessions are fun and engaging, utilising a range of body weight movements that mimic the physical challenges of everyday life, to support pupils’ overall physical health. A typical session includes a warm-up, specific skill focus (e.g. squat), workout and game. All movements can be adapted to meet the needs of every pupil, including those with reduced mobility, low muscle mass and other physical and emotional barriers to participation.
