These downloadable presentations give teachers supporting information and ideas to run engaging, interactive workshop sessions with their pupils.

• The Key Stage 1 workshop focuses on 'The Journey to the Games' and explores the history of the Commonwealth Games and developing pupils' numerical, physical and creative skills.
• The Key Stage 2 workshop focuses on 'Finding common ground' and explores the nations that make up the Commonwealth community, developing pupils' geographical, physical and creative skills.
• The Key Stage 3 workshop will focus on 'We can change our world' and enabled students to explore the skills and attributes required to bring about social change. They will develop their analytical, critical and teamworking skills alongside creativity and innovation.

On Monday 4 July we held an inspiring conversation with Louise Sugden, who shared her experiences about being a competing athlete. 

Here is a link to the session. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

To celebrate this summer's Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games, join schools up and down the UK to raise money for the Sport Relief Lap of Hope. It's all part of the Bring the Power: School Festival. Are you ready? It's Game On.

It's really easy to get involved.

For a small donation, pupils can write a Power Pledge for the world they want to see. They'll then pin it to their T-shirt and take on a lap of the playground, the classroom or the local community. You decide the date, distance and suggested donation.

The money you raise will help tackle inequality, improve mental health and help young people to survive and thrive - whether they're down the road or across the globe.
