About the programme
Why schools choose SHINE
SHINE is designed specifically for Key Stage 2 pupils with SEND who would benefit from additional opportunities to develop confidence, communication, physical literacy and independence through engaging, inclusive physical activity.
Rather than focusing on competition, SHINE focuses on opportunity — giving every child the chance to discover activities they enjoy, experience success, develop friendships and build the confidence to participate both in school and beyond.
Many children with SEND face barriers to participation in PE, physical activity and school sport. SHINE removes those barriers by creating inclusive, adapted experiences where every child can succeed in their own way. Our aim is simple: help every child discover what they CAN do.
