Active Leader Training
Active Leaders has been designed to train, equip and inspire 9-11 year olds to lead enjoyable, engaging and active games with their peers. Activities are designed to be integrated into play times, lunch times and extracurricular activities.
The training increases children’s aspirations, motivation and confidence in school and at home.
The programme includes:
- Child-centred application and interview process that has been praised by Ofsted
- A day of game-based training that provides children with skills and knowledge that enables them to become Active Leaders
- Certified graduation ceremony
- Support visits to ensure proper integration of activities during play and lunch times and as part of extracurricular activities
The Active Leaders programme is adaptable to its’ context, enabling schools to choose which children will participate in the trainings. Up to 40 children can be equipped to be an Active Leader through a school year.
