Event Description
Schools are invited to bring one team of up to 8 pupils from Years 3 to 6 who have a Special Educational Need or Disability (SEND).
Teams will take part in a carousel of inclusive multi-sport activities, with each pupil contributing points towards their team’s overall score. The team with the highest score at the end of the festival will be crowned the winner.
This festival is delivered in partnership with Panathlon, a national charity that provides inclusive sporting opportunities for young people with disabilities and special educational needs. Through fun, engaging and meaningful sporting experiences, Panathlon helps pupils build confidence, develop new skills, and enjoy being part of a team.
