What is the Activemark awards scheme?
The Active Schools programme is the foundation and critical element in Sport
England's commitment to involving more people in sport.
The Active Schools programme complements and reinforces the two other elements of
the programme, Active Sport and Active Communities.
Activemark / Activemark Gold
Activemark and Activemark Gold is an accreditation scheme for the
primary sector that recognises and rewards a school for its commitment
to promoting the benefits of physical activity and offering good
physical activity provision.
The programme provides schools with a thorough auditing and development
tool to help raise the standard of physical activity provision.
The Activemark process is closely linked with the British Heart
Foundation's (BHF) The Active School Resource Pack for Primary Schools,
which offers practical steps and guidance on how to plan, as well
as ideas on improving all-round physical activity provision.
