The Energy Project

This handbook documents the journey, research and findings of The Energy Project, a study that aimed to find ways to increase physical activity among schoolgirls, at both primary and secondary level, through the creative use of existing school time. The ultimate aim was to help sow the seeds of active lifestyles that would stand girls in good stead for the rest of their lives. 

if you’re interested in encouraging more girls and boys to take part in and benefit from physical activity, this guide is for you. It’s specifically aimed at teachers of subjects across the curriculum and school sports co-ordinators, but it will be of interest to girls and women everywhere. It will tell you a bit more about The Energy Project, how it was conducted and what it revealed, as well as provide both students and teachers with lots of  useful tips for increasing opportunities to be active.
