The Cheshire and Warrington School Sport Alliance (CWSSA) successfully applied for funding from the Targeting Inequalities Fund to start up the MOTIV8 project with the area.
The project targets SEND children and young people aged 7 -14 years old within mainstream schools to help start a Boccia or New Age Kurling (NAK) extra-curricular club. The funding has been used to purchase more Boccia and New Age Kurling equipment that can be borrowed by schools wanting to set an extra-curricular club for this target group.
Support from your School Games Lead is available in the form of help setting up the club and will be available throughout the remainder of this academic year into the next academic year.
There is also a 6-week session suggestions resources that can be downloaded which introduces you to the project and gives your school deliverers some ideas about what aims, objectives and activities can be used each week. Schools will be required to complete a small amount of monitoring and evaluation at the end of the 6-week block of work, which will include quantitative figures and a small case study. There are approximately 6 schools taking part in this project for the final half term of this year, however if you feel this is a project you would like to get involved with next year, please contact you School Games Lead to discuss.
