Premier league players to inspire primary pupils
José Mourinho, Theo Walcott and Gary Cahill are fronting a campaign to use football to inspire children in 10,000 primary schools.
A national TV campaign has started to promote the Premier League Primary Stars programme, which will provide teacher resources for key stages 1 and 2, including lesson plans, activity ideas, work sheets and video content.
The aim is to inspire learning in maths, English, PE, and personal, social, health and economic education.
Each teaching pack uses real life sport examples to put the lesson content into a context relevant to and engaging for children, with clear teaching instructions to ensure the resources are easy to use.
Registered schools will also be able to enter competitions to win a visit from the Premier League trophy and apply for teaching support materials such as book boxes or PE kit and equipment.
The initiative involves 88 premier league and English Football League clubs in England and Wales.
Primary schools can register for free to enable access to the programme’s resources.
