More than 500 schools are now signed up to the Energy Club, an extra-curricular physical activity scheme for children aged from four to 11. It is free for all schools across England and comes in the form of a before and after school club.
Funded by the government's Cabinet Office through the Social Action Fund, it was launched in October last year and is run by Sports Leaders UK, a national sports leadership organisation.
The programme sees 30-minute sessions run by volunteers, including parents and friends, before and after school. Schools involved can also access a range of literature and online resources to use with pupils. A range of Energy Club videos are available on YouTube.
