What is the Get Ahead Academy?

​

Get Ahead Academy is our leadership programme aimed to give young people the tools, knowledge and confidence to become excellent leaders and great role models within their own school. The programme is a full day programme with a further half day check in session.

​

​This training is for up to 20 young people in your school, preferably from Year 5/6, but can be adapted for younger children in the school.

​

​What will the outcomes be?

​

Once the training has been completed, you will have a trained cohort of leaders with the resources and the knowledge to deliver clubs within school or in the playground to other children, with the overall outcome to increase general physical activity levels amongst more young people in your school. 

​

​What will schools need to do?

​

• Schools will need to contact us to book a day and a half for the training to take place.

• Select 20 young people who demonstrate outstanding leadership qualities for the Get Ahead training.

• Organise an indoor space and inform appropriate staff.

• Following the training, staff can observe the leaders and sign off their booklets.
