Youngsters’ chance to be premier pupils

COMMUNITY TRUST COLUMN

ACCRINGTON Stanley Community Trust are delighted to launch the Premier League Primary Stars programme.

Available from September, Primary Stars aims to engage and inspire boys and girls aged 5-11 years old.

Schools from Hyndburn, Rossendale and the Ribble Valley can now register for the scheme, which has been carefully developed with teachers and will use the power and popularity of the Premier League to:

Inspire boys and girls aged 5-11 in the classroom

Use sport to connect children’s learning to the world around them

Motivate children to be ambitious and reach their goals

Teach the importance of working together and playing fair.

This programme will provide schools with free curriculumlinked resources for PE, PHSE, English, maths and enterprise that will inspire children to reach their goals, whilst teaching the importance of working together and playing fair.

Learning materials – such as assembly ideas, videos, differentiated activities (online and classroom-based), teacher notes and assessment support – will be provided to every school that registers for the programme, along with the chance to win a school visit from the Premier League trophy!

Our sport development team, who are implementing the scheme alongside the Premier League, will also be on hand to support sessions in schools to increase the value and return from this innovative programme.
