Our Ethos

We endeavour to deliver an invaluable, unique, active learning service for children 5-11 years of age.

Sport and education is an important element of our ethos at Sport Skills Academy. We firmly believe that all children benefit from healthy exercise, active learning and competition. We provide quality coaching and training in a multitude of sports alongside a number of workshops to ensure each individual reaches their full potential and develop skills for life through a wide range of cultural, social and educational (curricular) topics. We believe that education is not only about acquiring knowledge and skills but about developing an independence in a caring, stimulating and enjoyable environment.

Sport is a positive channel for energy, it encourages essential team skills and it is an excellent means of building confidence in children. We deliver current sporting themes that reflect the world of sport, competitions and the countries they are hosted in eg Rugby World Cup, Olympics, World Hockey Cup and the Commonwealth Games just to name a few.

Our sport enrichment programmes encourages team spirit, a positive and enjoyable experience alongside providing opportunities for all to achieve an enhanced social life. The skills and understanding the children acquire will enable them to follow a healthy lifestyle. Through the activities we offer, we aim to instill in all children the understanding that being a sportsman/woman involves so much more than just ability. We encourage honesty, ambition, leadership, teamwork, integrity, respect and resilience.
