Students running the hurdles at Ark’s annual athletics championship
With opportunities to take part in football, athletics, basketball, netball, badminton, table tennis and even yoga, Ark Sports is providing our students with the chance to learn a range of sports and compete on behalf of their schools at a network and national level.
When I was younger, I didn’t really enjoy sports because people used to tell me I wasn’t very good at it. Now, I really like taking part in tournaments like this with all the other Ark schools. Playing sport helps me to clear my mind. I’ve made more friends in Year 8, 9 and 10 through sport. I’d love to play on an elite team.

Supporting Ark to develop our extracurricular programmes means reaching 30,000 young people immediately, across schools in some of the most deprived parts of the country. But you will also be helping us to develop a model that we can evaluate and share. We want all schools to benefit from the lessons we learn to improve the physical and mental health of all young people.
