Nearly 120 delegates attended the 'Eyes Wide Open' conference on 17 September to discuss education through sport.
The Glasgow Active Schools programme, part of the 24m Scotland-wide Active Schools strategy, aims to improve children's health and well-being and increase their attainment levels at school.
The Glasgow programme will be delivered to both primary and secondary schools by a number of full and part-time Active School Co-ordinators.
Primary schools will be served by 31 full-time co-ordinators who will each develop activities at a small cluster of schools, such as sport, dance and outdoor adventure. They will encourage active play in school playgrounds, and promote walking and cycling to school.
