Health Concerns

There is no getting away from the facts - kids are not getting the exercise and fresh air that they used to. It shows not only in their weight and fitness, but also directly in the classroom as lethargy and a general lack of spark and concentration. We can blame the TV, games consoles and fast food, but you may be surprised to know some facts that lie a little closer to home. For example, on average, during a typical physical education class only 27% of the actual P.E time will be devoted to motor skills and activity. It is a proven fact that the majority of students who do well academically also have a keen interest in sports and physical activities.

You may be surprised to learn that the two biggest motivators kids have for participating in sport and playground exercise are fun and socialisation. Not so surprising really is it?

Magical Marking understand this relationship intimately and we have worked with recognised sports bodies and Hull University in the pursuit of more effective ways to educate and motivate kids in relation to exercise. This has helped us to develop games, programs and routines which work with, and indeed, beyond the curriculum in order to inspire, educate and re-motivate kids for the greater good of their health and their studies.

Why not join with us in our crusade to improve the health and welfare of school children across the U.K. through the most efficient utilisation of the playground and facilities you probably already hold.
