Who we are
We are the UK’s leading provider of sport, physical activity and childcare to primary age children and have expert understanding of primary school needs.
We operate as an extension of school staff resources, providing invaluable support, and are an approved, trusted resource for the PE and sport premium.
Inspiring the next generation
Since 1999, we have stood out as a beacon of excellence in coaching, sport and exercise for our pupils.
We offer a comprehensive support network of coaches, also known as Activity Professionals, making Premier Education a recognised and trusted brand in the education and sports coaching practice domain.
We pride ourselves on having coaches who are not just professionals, but passionate advocates for the development of school sport and exercise.
Culture code
Our Culture Code is the result of deep introspection and feedback from team members across the company, as well as being our vision for the future.
These Five Pillars of the Culture Code embody everything that Premier Education is, and what we want to achieve.
We are the number one provider of sport and physical activity throughout the UK
With a mission to enhance children’s health and wellbeing through active learning, we deliver sports, arts and Holiday Camps to approximately 240,000 primary pupils annually. Our coaches have the privilege of introducing young minds to the joys of competitive sport, igniting a passion for play that can last a lifetime.
Each day, our coach developers have the opportunity to evolve a new love for sports in young participants, helping children reach their potential in a comfortable environment.
Improving health and wellbeing through active learning sessions
Whether it’s after-school gymnastics, curriculum-based fencing classes, or performing arts holiday camps, our coaches make a positive impact through physical activity encouraging participation, teamwork and communication. The sessions cater to children of all abilities and are facilitated by highly trained professionals.
We are endorsed by National Governing Bodies
Premier Education’s long-standing reputation has led to partnerships with UK Sports Associations such as British Gymnastics, England Athletics, British Dodgeball and Tennis for Britain. These alliances enable us to provide world-class training to our staff of over 1,000 coaches.
