“Will and his team at Active Learning have been providing enhanced PE provision at our school for the past years. …lessons have covered a wide range. Will liaises with the school staff to ensure he is supporting whichever curricular area they want to cover. The children look forward to and thoroughly enjoy their sessions... Their skills have improved in all areas of PE. …always well planned and executed with the children busy, active and engaged at all times. The staff have also used Will and his team to develop and improve their own teaching of PE.

Gillian Brereton, Parent, Silcoates School Holiday Course
“I just wanted to say thank you for the brilliant football course that Bob went on over the last 2 days. He thoroughly enjoyed himself and can't wait to go again at Easter. From what he has told me it sounds like it was extremely well organised and he thought the coaches were great. He was thrilled to bits with his certificate and will be taking it into school to show his class!! Thanks again.”
Jenny, Parent, Feb ‘09
“…I feel your active training really helped my son to learn to participate in games which he does not normally do. Therefore I have decided to put him in a football club where he can learn more. Thank you for your help.”
Mohammed Masood Bashir, Parent
Just to say a very big thank you, and let you know what a great asset and credit your staff are to your company. My two sons learned lots, which I think reflects in way the children are taught. It is nice to be confident that when I leave the children I know they are being looked after and having a thoroughly enjoyable time. I would have no hesitation to book them in again, and would highly recommend your services. We feel this has been money well spent. Well done and thank you.
Graham and Rachel Hainsworth, Parents, Allerton Grange High School, Easter 2007
“I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you and your team for the fantastic workshops… The range of activities has been fantastic... All of the workshops were aimed brilliantly at the age range of children… I cannot thank you enough for the time given to us and we look forward to working with you again next year.”
Nic Hood, Children's Corner, Leeds Grammar School
“We have used WR Active Learning since the Spring term 2006 to extend the sports we offer after school and during the holiday periods. Will has been able to provide the school with a number of coaches with expertise in football, dance, basketball, netball, athletics and multi – skills. He works in partnership with the school, identifying parents’ needs through questionnaires and helping us to plan a comprehensive plan for the year. The coaches conduct themselves in a professional manner and feedback from the children and parents tells us that the children enjoy the sessions and are learning and developing new skills. With Will’s partnership, we are more able to meet the needs of an extended school.”
Pauline Lawson, Headteacher, Bramhope Primary School

The children really enjoyed themselves and it was a great success which was down to the professionalism and high standard of coaching from your team. The parents were suitably impressed and I received quite a few comments with respect to how good your coaches were. Once again, thank you and I hope we can work together in the future.”
