“A positive experience of sport and physical activity at a young age can build a lifetime habit of participation and is central to meeting the government’s ambition for a world class education system. Physical literacy (building physical competency alongside confidence, enjoyment knowledge and understanding) and high quality, modern physical education (PE) lessons that engage boys and girls of different backgrounds and abilities should be a fundamental part of every child’s school experience.” – Department for Education, School Sport and Activity Action Plan, July 2019
