Launch of ‘Studio You’ – Free video-based PE lessons for girls aged 13-16

28/09/21

Studio You is a brand new video platform funded by Sport England and powered by This Girl Can, designed to engage less active teenage girls.

Developed using insight from both PE teachers and girls within KS3 and KS4, its ambition is to reconnect young people with physical education, improve their confidence and make being active fun.

Children and young people aged 5-18 should engage in 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity a day, yet only 10% of girls aged 13-16 achieve this*. School PE lessons

play a vital role in helping teenagers reach their recommended amount of exercise and building a healthy long-term relationship with physical activity. That’s why we’ve created Studio You, to provide teachers with a different style of resource to support the delivery of PE lessons to this audience.

Studio You has been developed with governing body for group exercise EMD UK and the content has been accredited by the Association for Physical Education (afPE), so you can be confident that the lessons are appropriate for your students and meet the requirements of the National Curriculum.
