“Being an AOC Inclusion Hub has already improved collaboration and helped to get more of our learners active. It has encouraged us to work with learners to have a greater say over their sport and physical activity provision. We are so pleased to be an Inclusion Hub again for this academic year and know that it will help us to achieve our aim of making sure all of our college learners are active on a regular basis.”
Chloe Brown, Sense Active, Sport and Physical Activity Coordinator (East)
Each college will receive funding to help engage students and an opportunity to share best practice and learnings in the monthly network calls. The colleges selected will also deliver a local development opportunity for other colleges in their surrounding area to take part in activity.
