Why us
The best skateboarding learning experience
Great Skate will work with your school to run skateboarding lessons where all levels are welcome. Whether a one-day experience or a curriculum PE programme delivered over a half term or term, your students will gain confidence, motivation, a positive mindset whilst having an awesome amount of fun. Great Skate provides everything you need to give your students an amazing experience. We bring the skateboards, helmets and protective knee, wrist and elbow pads for each student (for a group of up to 30). So you can enjoy watching your students grow and learn.
Holistic approach
At Great Skate we believe there is so much more to skateboarding than just riding and doing tricks on a board. All our programmes have well-being and positive mindset activities and themes built in. So your students carry on their Ready - Shreddy - Growth attitude into every aspect of learning and life!
Passionate teachers
My personal passion for skateboarding drives everything I do when delivering to school groups. By going the extra mile, I have the satisfaction that everyone leaves knowing they did something amazing today.
Supervision to keep children safe
All Great Skate skateboard programmes are designed and led by a qualified teacher with up to date DBS, Safeguarding, Emergency First Aid and Skateboard GB coaching qualification.
01
Curriculum P.E. Skateboard Lessons:
Skateboarding covers the National Curriculum for PE by developing flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance. It is by nature an adventurous activity which challenges the individual. Skateboarders continually assess their performance and demonstrate progress during skate sessions and over time and always strive for their personal best. We break everything down into learnable chunks and help your students every step of the way!
