Hounslow Heath Infant School is situated in a London borough that shares the same challenges as many neighbouring boroughs across the UK’s capital where there are crowded living conditions.
Many families have to manage with a lack of physical space, both inside and outside, and so many of the children that come through our doors are not as confident or competent in their physical development as they perhaps could be.
During Youth Sport Trust’s National School Sport Week (25 - 29 June), and as the charity engages hundreds of thousands of early years children through its partnership with Entertainment One’s PJ Masks, we are raising awareness around supporting children to develop physical literacy, which in turn will feed into school readiness and academic achievement.
