Family PE Week Resources

Help your students’ parents understand that physical education is about teaching, learning, and fun by participating in Family PE Week, October 2-6. It’s a win-win-win for students, parents, and PE teachers.

Parents who participated in 2019’s Family PE Week said it increased their understanding of what content is taught (76%) and how it is taught (79%), and 65% said that it increased the value they place on PE. Also, 81% said they participated because that wanted to show their child that they believe physical education is important!

PLEASE REGISTER HERE. Why? Because Active Schools can bring more media attention to Family PE Week, and physical education in general, when we are able to report a large number of participating schools.
