Fitter Schools.
Gymrun creates a purposeful and reflective school culture, where pupils run, push, pull, ache and sweat as they challenge their individual potential. We believe in building physical fitness, health and literacy as a core foundation for all learning. We do this by embracing challenge and celebrating achievement. On completion of the Gymrun Five Challenges, every pupil is awarded a woven badge, while working in three of six PE NC areas. Gymrun fosters a wonderful atmosphere where more able pupils support and reaffirm those less able as informal fitness and health leaders.

Simple Strategy.
Fun and inclusive, Gymrun is a simple strategy for developing all pupils’ understanding of how to keep physically fit and healthy. Beyond the physical domain, our Gymrun Five Challenges improve communication and co-operation, as pupils evaluate and think critically about their own and others’ performances. Using our Gymrun Curriculum and Gymrun on YouTube, pupils learn to use sequenced foundation exercises to build upon their existing physical fitness and health, in and beyond the school day.
