BENEFITS
Why Boing?
|
Every child is different
At Boing we understand that all children are different. Some love sport. Some don’t. Boing is designed to help your child realise their potential in physical activity and Sport
|
Greater inclusivity
Development rather than competition is key to Boing. When competition is introduced it often leads to exclusion or disengagement. Individual development and a focus on improvement leads to greater inclusivity and collaboration
|
|
Focus on confidence and creativity
Children love to play. We believe that creativity and confidence should be harnessed for greater learning power. The focus on children means that teachers become coaches in the PlayGames, and children are partners in creating them!
|
Fight obesity
Boing strongly believes in the power of physical activity and sport to develop self-fulfilment, confidence, and a sense of belonging. This can lead to greater body awareness, confidence and a contribution to whole school objectives of healthy body and healthy minds!
|
HOW IT WORKS
Boing is all about developing physical literacy.The International Physical Literacy Association defines Physical Literacy as “the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to value and take responsibility for engagement in physical activities for life.” (IPLA, 2017)
A physically literate child is a confident and creative child who moves fluently and is knowledgeable about the importance of health, activity and sport. At Boing, our goal is to create physically literate young people in your school! To achieve this we focus on five areas of physical literacy: personal expression, control and interaction with objects, movement, reacting to the environment and interacting with others. |

The programme
At Boing we have created over 120 games for you to use as a Teacher, and have been researching child-centred approaches to ensure that we have some sound principles and pedagogical approaches to delivering the developmental and inclusive PE programme that you desire.
Research led
Senior Academics at the University of Bath, Oxford Brookes University, and the University of Gloucestershire have been collaborating to understand the impact of the Boing programme on physical activity, engagement and development through PE. The first of its kind, Bing is a robust, evidence-based approach to PE in primary aged children. Learn more by contacting the team

Professional development
We don’t want to do PE for you! You are the skilled practitioners and educators. You’ll never see a white van with cones and a bag of balls! Instead, we’ve developed a training programme that uses a fraction of the PE premium to develop all of your teachers in ‘the Boing way’ so that you can become active Boingers yourselves.
