Teign Students Take Strides Toward Wellbeing with New Running Club Teign School is pleased to be partnering with Active Devon as part of the Devon RISE Up programme.  As part of the programme, Teign School has been able to design its own bespoke approach to boosting movement, inspired by Sport England's Patchwork Physical Literacy initiative. Despite an already diverse extracurricular offer at Teign, staff knew a group of students remained disengaged from physical activity. In response, they have launched a weekly running club to explicitly target student wellbeing and promote self-care through movement. What began as a small initiative has now become a thriving, year-round programme, featuring both onsite and offsite sessions, which are creatively designed to be fun and functional. Activities include team relays with upbeat music for motivation, tag-style running games to promote 'Play Wrapped in care' and bodyweight strength challenges. Offsite sessions involve minibus transport to local trails, cycle paths, and nature reserves. These sessions offer a more adventurous experience and are often differentiated by pace groups to ensure accessibility for all ability levels.  The running club has evolved into a supportive wellbeing community, providing a safe and inclusive space for students to connect and open up and opportunities to challenge physical and mental boundaries. The club also integrates accessible self-care strategies such as deep breathing practices, gratitude journaling and nutrition education.  The club’s success is bolstered by enthusiastic staff participation. Teachers from the PE department and beyond have regularly supported sessions, modelled active lifestyles and encouraged participation from students who might not traditionally engage with PE. Their presence has also reinforced the message that movement and wellbeing are for everyone and has helped normalise participation across the wider school community. On the school’s ‘Wellbeing Scale’ they have seen improvements of +47% with their biggest gains in students who take part in the club feeling optimistic about the future, feeling useful and feeling close to others. Their ‘School Wellbeing Scorecard’ also increased from 77% to 83% following the launch of the club.  Lucie Wagner, Head of School at Teign School, said: "Our Running Club has grown into much more than an after-school activity, it’s a community where students feel safe, supported, and excited to take part in physical activity while developing lifelong wellbeing skills." Matthew Shanks, CEO of Education South West, said: "We are proud to see Teign School embracing innovative approaches to student wellbeing. The Running Club is a fantastic example of how schools can create inclusive, engaging opportunities that help students thrive both physically and mentally."
