Watching #ENGvNZ today gave a chance for reflection. 3yrs ago, in the @YorkshireCCC pavillion, 50 school practitioners, researchers and policy makers designed the @We_Are_CAS framework. We could never have dreamed how much impact @We_Are_CAS would have since conception.1/14

[Active Bradford @Active_Bradford]

Creating Active Schools is a key workstream of the @JoinUsMovePlay programme and 36 schools in #Bradford are delivering the framework to embed physical activity in the school system.

Dr Andy Daly-Smith @brainercise, CAER Co-Director from @UniofBradford recommends - to increase physical activity & improve health outcomes: integrating movement into daily school routines instead of focusing solely on sports clubs

Always nice to visit @GMMoving a @We_Are_CAS national partners. Hearing impact of CAS on school stakeholder’s physical activity behaviours is fantastic. Here to share how schools are effectively using the whole school improvement tool to monitor & evaluate organisational change.

Congratulations @brainercise @AnnaChalkley and the rest of the team on a fantastic couple of days of sharing international learning around whole school approaches to physical activity. Lots to think about and follow up #wspa2024

[Anna Chalkley @AnnaChalkley]

NEW paper🧵 provides a more nuanced understanding of #PhysicallyActiveLearning #PAL and highlights the ambiguity associated with its theoretical foundation, particularly in practice

It is planned and structured with specific goals. I wouldn’t promote the daily mile, as for many, it lacks enjoyment and therefore could have a negative impact, especially on those children who are least active in the first place.

It was exciting sharing our physical activity journey with others at the #WSPA international conference. @HighCragsPLA @We_Are_CAS @JoinUsMovePlay

[Adam Fuller @Ad_Fuller]

Insightful day at the #WSPA2024 Whole School PA conference exploring ways in which we can support the whole system to ensure schools and young people are active, healthy and happy! @YorkshireSport @We_Are_CAS great to hear from international and local examples of good practice 💪

[Andy Daly-Smith @brainercise]

@LondonPehwb @tagtiv8 @E_RileyGibson @AnnaChalkley @warwickmansell @suewilkinson13 @neil_play @RaeSnape @AlexOgden25 @playengland @PlayWales @moki_health Completely agree- this is why we integrated 2 co-design sessions to draw on the voices of the 300 delegates using experience-based co-design to develop a brief to policy makers on what WSPA needs to progress. We need to lobby with a shared voices and co-designed agendas.

[Edd Riley-Gibson @E_RileyGibson]

Incredibly grateful to be given the opportunity to present on how we can improve sustainment of physical activity interventions in schools at #WSPA2024

It was a real privilege to attend and connect with so many passionate researchers, practitioners and policymakers.

[ISPAH @ISPAH]

Our very own @karenmilton8 amongst a 🧠-rich panel of experts discussing the critical importance of #WSPA 💪

[Nathan Dawkins @NathanPDawkins]

Great few days at the Whole School Physical Activity Conference. Lots of interesting talks & discussions. Well done @brainercise & @AnnaChalkley for organising a fantastic event #WSPA24

[Edd Riley-Gibson @E_RileyGibson]

I have no doubt #WSPA2024 will be a catalyst for driving change in the UK by reducing health inequality, encouraging collaboration and co-creation of innovative solutions to creating scalable and sustainable physical activity practices.
Thank you @brainercise & @AnnaChalkley

[Andy Daly-Smith @brainercise]

@suewilkinson13 @AnnaChalkley It was great to have you with us at the conference, Sue. Thank you for taking time to showcase the work of afPE and PE for life.

[@Helen_Tys @TysHelen]

Our @TaAFTalks Ready Set Move team had an amazing time at #wspa2024. A really insightful two days and excited to be part of this work. Thank you @brainercise @AnnaChalkley for the opportunity to be part of it. Super proud of my brilliant middle leaders & @laurencliffor2 ❤️

[Niamh Hart @Niamh_Hart_]

Thank you #WSPA2024 for giving me the opportunity to reflect on the last 3.5 years with today’s presentation of my research🧘‍♀️ and a big thanks to everyone that humbled me when I asked them to PAUSE… breathe & stretch 🧘‍♂️ 🙌

[Gareth Jones @DrGarethJones]

A brilliant few days at #WSPA2024 Now time for reflection and digest. My thinking in Whole-System Approaches, implementation science and behaviour change and their interaction has evolved. Next steps: how we can turn this into practice/further learning @SHU_PAWPH @movemoresheff
