Do you know someone who works in a primary school who always goes above and beyond the call of duty to get kids active, really “going the extra mile”?
Why not nominate them to be an Active School Hero? Active School Hero is a scheme run in a partnership between ukactive Kids and Nike and supported by a range of sporting organisations including Sport England and the Youth Sport Trust.
They are looking for heroes who demonstrate enthusiasm to inspire children to be more active and act as a positive role model for both kids and other staff within their school.
It would be great if the hero has an inspiring story to tell around how activity has helped change their own life as well as those of the kids.
Nominations are free and you can nominate as many Heroes as you would like – but you can’t nominate yourself. An Active School Hero must …
- be employed in a primary school which is within one of the 33 Greater London Authority boroughs
- aged 18 or over
- have worked in a primary school for at least six months.
It can be any school staff member in a London primary school who helps kids be active; from the lollypop lady, teaching assistant and librarian to the catering staff, active travel lead or the after school activities manager.
Nominate your Active School Hero here.
Here is a toolkit for schools.
Nominations will close on Monday 8 April.
