Tagtiv8 have a partnership which is supporting adults with learning difficulties to secure employment. E4 Printing, based in Bradford, Yorkshire and national charity Hft have the contract with Tagtiv8 to produce our Physically Active Learning (PAL) resources. These resources are used by 60,000 children in schools across the UK and abroad.

Why Yorkshire?

Most of the Tagtiv8 team’s teaching experience was based in Yorkshire; so it is great that our resources are ‘Made in Yorkshire’. We have always sought to put the region on the map for education, physical activity and health. Working with Hft means we can now offer opportunities for training and employment. The partnership means that we can help boost self-esteem, while gaining valuable work experience.

Bryn Llewellyn, Director of Tagtiv8:

“We are passionate about addressing the growing issue of sedentary lifestyles and children growing up disinterested in Maths and English. Our unique support and resources offer schools and children the chance to combine solutions to both these issues. Like E4 and Hft, we believe in creating opportunities for everyone, and we were delighted to be able to award our production contract to this amazing organisation. The kits that they are producing offers children and young people the chance to not only enjoy physical activity, but also experience the joy of learning in a unique way.”

Tom Armstrong, Business Manager at E4 Printing, part of Hft:

“We were delighted to partner with Tagtiv8 and work together to deliver the school based activity kits. Once the concept of active learning had been explained, it became clear this was a project which fitted with our social improvement programme by getting kids to advance their maths and exercise skills in one session. Working with Tagtiv8 offered real value to the excellent work E4 does. We believe that everyone who wants a job deserves to have one, and we support those with learning disabilities to be supported into employment and gain new skills and boost their self-esteem. We love to work with like-minded organisations that want to make a difference to others. It is wonderful to think that the kits made here are transforming outcomes in English and Mathematics and physical outcomes for children across the UK and abroad.”
