News | Yorkshire Education Innovators Receive Global Award

Global non-profit HundrED has released its fourth annual Global Collection. This report highlights the most impactful and scalable innovations in primary education - and Tagtiv8 has made the list!

Despite challenges and disruptions, we have seen an encouraging willingness among educators, parents, and students to embrace new ways of teaching and learning. During this pivotal moment in the history of education, internationally renowned education nonprofit HundrED has released its fourth Global Collection. Tagtiv8 is one of the innovations recognized in the report.

HundrED’s annual Global Collection for 2021 highlights 100 of the most impactful innovations in primary education from around the world.

Tagtiv8 was chosen due to its unique approach and its potential to create a sustainable impact in education.Tagtiv8 empowers teachers to take the learning beyond the classroom walls. Their Physically Active Learning (PAL) approaches allow children to move and learn in Mathematics, English and other subjects. Think Tig, Tag or Tag Rugby Meets Scrabble, Countdown and more. Research demonstrates that Tagtiv8 impacts positively on academic performances and inactivity levels, crucial in these days of increasingly sedentary lifestyles.

Bryn Llewellyn, founder of Tagtiv8, said: “Our approaches work - and play - with all children, from Early Years to Key Stage 2, especially those deemed reluctant learners or those who have a fear of certain subjects. During Covid-19, we have been able to support schools across the UK with outdoor learning resources and training.”

We will continue to encourage as many stakeholders as possible including schools, educators, administrators, students, and organizations to get involved so that we can work towards a positive future.”
