As schools prepare for another year of change across Physical Education (PE), School Sport and Physical Activity (PESSPA), one thing remains clear: every child deserves access to high-quality PE that builds confidence, develops physical literacy and creates positive lifelong attitudes towards being active.
The Department for Education (DfE) has recently introduced its new Enrichment Framework, outlining an ambitious vision to ensure every child benefits from a wide range of enriching experiences throughout their education.
