PE Life Skills Award

PE teaches valuable life skills such as resilience, collaboration, and independence – all of which can inspire and empower young people to excel in all areas of their lives. The PE Life Skills Award recognises and rewards learners as they develop these essential life skills through the PE curriculum.

Celebrate the development of life skills through PE

Developed in partnership with the Youth Sport Trust, the PE Life Skills highlights and celebrates the full range of achievements young people gain through PE, boosting engagement and nurturing a lifelong, positive relationship with physical activity.

Now in its fourth year, this award is designed to work across primary and secondary school stages. It is tailored to meet the developmental needs at each level, ensuring inclusivity for a wide range of abilities within the same class. This makes it particularly suitable for alternative provision settings, special schools, and hospital schools.

The resources for the award provide schools with a framework and the tools to support delivery to students and rewards learners with a certificate at the end of the award.
