Through the School Games programme we are looking to target those students who face the greatest inequalities to being physically active and those who struggle to engage with sport and physical activity on a daily basis. Please consider this and the Kent School Games ‘ME’ themes when selecting the students you are bringing along to our events. To view the list of events, please click on the relevant term below.
Please note, some event details still need to be finalised. Please contact your SGO to express an interest in an event. If you have any other questions, you can get in touch with us at Kentschoolgames@kent.gov.uk.
