Premier League Primary Stars
What is Premier League Primary Stars?
Over the last four years, we have engaged 7,000 children across almost 100 schools through Premier League Primary Stars.
Scarlett Eddy, Lancasterian Primary School teacher: “The Foundation’s had a massive impact at school. The children are obsessed with the Stadium and Spurs, and we’ve seen attendance become more regular due to the excitement of the Foundation’s sessions.”
Premier League Primary Stars is a primary school education programme. Funded by the Premier League through the Premier League Charitable Fund, it uses the appeal of football to help children be active and develop essential life skills.
Who can get involved?
Launched in 2017, and available to every primary school in England and Wales, we are one of more than 100 professional football club community organisations delivering Premier League Primary Stars, supporting pupils in the classroom, the playground, and on the sports field.
Premier League Primary Stars enables teachers to use resources across English, PSHE, PE and Maths, to support children to develop skills and values that are crucial to success in later life.
The free programme also provides teachers and parents with access to more than 650 downloadable resources across a range of curriculum subjects at Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, developed by teachers for teachers, and in collaboration with experts such as the National Literacy Trust.

Hear from Dwayne...
Dwayne, Holy Family Catholic School student: “I was distant at home and I wasn’t really communicating, and in school I wasn’t being focused or participating.
“I liked the mentoring I received through Premier League Inspires, though. It showed me how to identify things, open up and communicate with people.
“This has helped me out a lot – I’ve been able to get myself some awards at school and stopped being distant with my mum and nan.”
Inspires & Empowers
Premier League Inspires empowers participants to develop personal, social, employability and life skills, through a series of regular face-to-face group sessions, mentoring, workshops and social action projects, providing students with the help they need now and supporting them to plan for their future.
