The MOVING Schools Challenger is about to kick off!

As of the academic year of 2023/2024, seven European countries (Spain, United Kingdom, Poland, Luxembourg, Italy, Bulgaria and Denmark) will be organising monthly challenges for school-aged children, creating equal opportunities, providing competitive knowledge, and ensuring high quality physical activity challenges, in which the rising generations will be able to thrive and integrate knowledge on the value of regular physical activity into their everyday lives in a playful and joyful way.

Before the end of the current school year, we have introduced the Moving Schools Challenger programme. Our aim is to set up a pan-European programme for the whole school year with the main objective being to find and strengthen synergies among parallel initiatives amplifying the overarching message of the importance of physical activity, healthy lifestyle and social behaviors. It not only aims to help children become more physically active and healthy, but also to have a positive impact on teachers and families, as it has been demonstrated in Spain.

By setting different cooperative monthly challenges during the whole school year (to achieve higher results for the school score together), students will become more committed to being active and behaving in a healthy way as they learn to integrate healthy lifelong behaviours in their experience of going to school every day.
