Absolutely spot on. Return PE teacher to primary schools. This is an initiative I’m very keen on

It would be a more lasting legacy to put a specialist PE teacher into every primary school to help develop physical literacy in our kids. That’s what underpins all sports.

⚽ Strong Start at Shoot Soccer!
Coerver® Performance Camp at Shoot is two days in, and the level has been excellent 👏
High tempo, lots of touches on the ball, & players fully committing to improving every time they step on the pitch 🔥
More to come over the next few days 💪
I can honestly say this is the best piece of development work I’ve been involved in during my career so far.
A huge amount of work has gone into it, but it’s really starting to come together now.
Launch coming August 2026 👀
