Active Schools Moray
Create more opportunities for children to take part in sport and physical activity by linking schools with sports clubs, running events and blocks of activity sessions, and recruiting and training volunteers as coaches and leaders.
Current opportunities
Active Schools works across all schools in Moray, providing opportunities for children and young people to participate in sport before, during and after school, free of charge. Active Schools sessions are delivered by volunteers including coaches from local clubs, young leaders (aged 11-25) and adult volunteers with an interest in sports and/or working with children and young people.
Active School Co-ordinators support and mentor volunteers, providing coach education opportunities (often for free) as well as guidance and advice where needed, and PVG checks are also carried out by the team.
Each volunteer will have their own particular reasons for volunteering, whether gaining experience for job prospects or meeting new people and giving something to the local community. The aim is to best match the volunteer experience to activity sessions in schools or community settings.
Our Young Leader programme offers additional incentives including gaining Active Schools hoodies on reaching a milestone number of volunteer hours.
Types of role include coaching, photography, film-making, event organising, mentoring and additional adult supervision at sessions.
