It begins with physical health.
To engage well in a physical education, we must be physically literate and in good physical health. With good physical health, our learning, resilience mental and social well-being also improves.
Gymrun embeds inclusive physical health standards into the culture of schools – engaging, motivating and monitoring all pupils. It encourages pupils of all abilities to push themselves physically, cognitively and personally.
Gymrun supports 5/5 DFE SPF guidelines, hits 3/6 areas of the PENC and provides actual physical progress data (for Ofsted etc.).
