Following on from the official opening of our brand-new functional fitness suite, we are proud to announce that Alsop High School is the first school in the UK to partner with British Weightlifting, setting a new standard for fitness and wellbeing in education!  This incredible achievement has been made possible through the support of our amazing partners, who we have worked with this year.

As the national governing body for Olympic weightlifting and para-powerlifting, British Weightlifting has been instrumental in equipping our PE team with world-class training and qualifications. Together, we’re transforming our PE curriculum to focus on functional fitness, inclusivity and empowering all students to achieve their personal best.

Dedicated to improving the physical, mental and social wellbeing of young people, The Academy Programme has been a driving force behind this initiative. Their vision has helped us bring state-of-the-art facilities and innovative fitness opportunities to Alsop, opening up pathways for our students to develop life skills and qualifications. Alsop High School is the first school in the North-West to partner with The Academy Programme.

Finally Full Moon Fitness Liverpool,  led by Liverpool owns CrossFit Games decorated athlete Reece Mitchell, has brought an inspiring energy to Alsop. From staff training to engaging student activities, their passion for fitness and community has been a game-changer. Reece’s journey of overcoming challenges to achieve global success resonates with our mission to empower every student to thrive. Reece who has shared his journey with all our students said “This partnership is more than fitness, it’s about building confidence, resilience and opportunities for the future. With our new CrossFit® Functional Fitness Suite, Alsop High School is setting a example of what’s possible when education and innovation come together.”

Thank you to our partners for helping us create a healthier, more inclusive future for our students! 

We had a brilliant day celebrating the official opening of our new suite and our students demonstrated incredible enthusiasm and determination during a series of workshops facilitated by CrossFit Full Moon coaches. It was a day filled with learning, challenges and so much fun. The day was packed with highlights, including a “Lift Off” from the phenomenal Full Moon professionals, a fitness challenge for students which was held on our brand-new MUGA and engaging workshops that inspired and empowered our students to push beyond their limits. The response from our students has been truly inspiring, and we couldn’t be prouder of their efforts! A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of this event.
