2012 OLYMPIC
LEGACY
‘5 hours physical education
and sport per week for every young person’
The Government’s long term vision is to
increase the amount and quality of PE and sport in schools and
colleges. The PE and Sport Strategy for Young People (PESSYP)
in the run up to 2012 is part of the Olympic legacy. The aim
is for every child to have access to 5 hours of high quality PE and
sport per week (3 hours for 16-19 year olds).
Our Target
To create a new ‘5 hour offer’ for all 5-16
year olds. To continue to increase the number of 5-16 year
olds taking part in at least 2 hours high quality PE and sport at
school each week and create opportunities for them to participate
in a further 3 hours each week of sporting activity, through
school, voluntary and community providers; and create new
opportunities for all 16-19 year olds to participate in 3 hours
each week of sporting activities through their colleges or in local
clubs.
The PE and sport strategy expectations are for
40% of 5-19 year olds to take part in 5 hours of PE and sport per
week by 2010-2011.
