We know that improved physical health will positively impact pupils’ lives, their ability to learn, their resilience and their mental and social well-being.
At Gymrun, we embed a fun and inclusive physical health assessment into the culture of primary schools. We encourage all pupils to challenge themselves, understand that failure is ok, and to learn from these experiences.
Gymrun supports the revised DFE guidelines for the school sports premium and meets key personal development criteria in the new Ofsted framework.
