Any physical activity is good for health, even a mini walk, but essential in childhood, but these chilling figures from a school sport survey are depressing:
From 2018 to 2022:
- 28% were not doing any organised sport outside of their PE lessons and now that is 36%
- 48% pupils were active three or more times a week outside the school curriculum and now it’s down to 39%
- 65% of pupils take part in sport via a community club setting is now down to 56%
- however 93% of pupils want to do more sport
Money and motivation (iPads and tech) are stopping them.
