School Games Impact Report 2024-2025

We are pleased to share our School Games Impact Report on the national programme which puts physical activity and school sport at the heart of schools. It provides young people with the opportunity to learn through physical activity and competition to achieve their personal best.

The programme aims to provide every child in year 3 to 13 across all education settings with a positive experience where the young person’s motivation, competence and confidence are at the centre of every event or project.

YSF CEO Carl Hawkes said:"We are proud to share the impact of our 2024–25 School Games programme. This work is only possible because of the commitment and support of our valued network and partners, and we are deeply grateful for the collaboration that underpins everything we do. 

"The shared passion for driving forward change and tackling inequalities through this programme is truly inspiring. Together we are creating opportunities that make a real difference for the children and young people who need it the most." 

The School Games vision and mission sets out our ambitions for young people. The vision states what we want to achieve, and the mission gives clarity around how this will be achieved. Delivering change locally whilst making a difference nationally is key to the success of the vision and mission being achieved.
