We provide quality assured services and resources and valuable professional support for our members and the physical education, school sport and physical activity sector.

We Offer

• A wide range of high quality membership services
• Accredited professional learning opportunities and vocational qualifications
• Journals (Physical Education Matters & Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy)
• Advice, support & employment opportunities
• Monthly e-newsletter
• Email/video/webinar updates
• Representation at key stakeholder meetings and national working parties

We are not about quick fit solutions, we want a sustainable legacy, so that in another 15 years we do not have inactive young people and a growing obesity profile. Proactive solutions worked across the sector by key stakeholders in true partnership, will ensure children and young people have the knowledge, skills but more importantly the physical health and emotional wellbeing to achieve the very best that they can. Help us to make it happen!
