English on the Move is a physically active learning programme which combines physical activity with spelling, punctuation and grammar teaching, aligned to the National Curriculum.
Through team games, plenty of movement and well-paced tasks, pupils focus on one learning outcome per lesson, reinforcing and practicing what they have learnt in their usual English lessons.
English on the Move lessons are suitable for all abilities and can be tailored to meet the needs of your pupils. The impact of the programme is constantly measured and shared via an online platform and regular reports.
Why choose English on the Move?
SPaG can be confusing for pupils. The wide range of complex-sounding terminology can be intimidating; the number of rules (and their exceptions) can be overwhelming; and at times, boring.
English on the Move offers a chance to break down some of these barriers by taking the same key concepts to a new environment, with a different way of learning.
Although it’s still new, data from trials is extremely positive:
● 98.7% of pupils said they would like to do EOTM again
● 98.3% of children felt that EOTM had helped them with SPaG
Pre- and post-programme test scores showed that 95.6% of children had improved in SPaG after taking part in EOTM.

“When I’m teaching spellings, the children find it really difficult whereas English on the Move allows them to do a difficult concept but in a fun, physically active environment and it takes away the fear of spellings, which is really important to me.”
