Impact and Outcome

How Impact is increased?

JoyMove increases impact of organisations by engaging all children in inclusive, enjoyable and highly active sporting or educational activities. JoyMove helps organisations to ensure all children are engaged and active for the majority of time during sessions. Increasing enjoyment and participation leads to greater impact as more children engage and attend. When participation is increased, children will learn more and so this increases the effectiveness and impact of the work done with children hugely. Children attend more when they know they all get to participate and enjoy themselves. Having greater numbers of children attending leads to greater interest from the wider community which leads to even more attendance and gives organisations more opportunities to expand and grow.

How Quality and Effectiveness is increased?

JoyMove raises quality and effectiveness of session delivery by providing highly engaging, inclusive and enjoyable lessons or activities for children. No-one is missed out and no-one is knocked out, activities include all children, all of the time. Using inclusive educational approaches, all children are actively engaged and participate in sessions.

The quality of education increases when children engage more, participate more and think more. JoyMove purposefully chooses and uses activities which require children to actively think, create and participate.
