Participation
Students should feel encouraged to take part, practise and recognise their own progress.
Active development
Building confidence through movement
Age-appropriate movement experiences can help students develop balance, coordination, strength, spatial awareness and the confidence to participate. The emphasis should remain on safe progress, positive habits and meaningful engagement.
What matters most
Values that guide participation
However students take part, the same values shape the experience — from a first movement session to a friendly game.
Teamwork
Shared activity helps students communicate, cooperate and understand their responsibility to others.
Resilience
Physical challenges can help students respond to setbacks, persist with effort and learn from experience.
Fair play
Respect for teammates, opponents, officials and agreed rules should remain central to participation.

Participation & safety
Safe, age-appropriate participation
Activity should be planned according to students’ age, development, available facilities and appropriate supervision. Families should receive verified information about schedules, clothing, equipment, consent and health requirements before participation.
This is not a final health, safeguarding or medical policy. Verified requirements are published by the academy.
Competition
Competition with perspective
Where suitable competitive opportunities are available, the emphasis should remain on preparation, respectful conduct, teamwork and learning from the experience. Competition details must be confirmed before publication.
