Evidence

An independent evaluation by the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine at Sheffield Hallam University underscored the effectiveness of imoves. The programme was found to have a positive impact on children's physical activity levels, well-being, behaviour, and even teacher confidence to teach active lessons.

Notably, imoves was especially impactful for the least active pupils, helping them reach the same activity levels as their more active peers. This aligns with the primary objective of ensuring that 'all' children are active.

Teachers and students alike found imoves to be fun, engaging, and conducive to learning. It created a positive teaching environment and made students excited about attending school. The Centre thus recommended that schools should utilise the imoves programme, given the clear evidence of its positive effects.
