A ready-to-use toolkit that helps you move beyond the music-versus-sport conflict and create pathways where students can succeed at both.
Music and sport are often positioned as competing priorities. When rehearsals, lessons, training and games clash, students can feel like they have to choose.
The Music & Sport Advocacy Toolkit gives you practical resources to change that conversation. It helps students, parents and staff understand the value of both while providing strategies for creating more balanced, supportive pathways.

17 printable “Wanna Be Like…” Posters connecting music learning with high-performing athletes and relatable role models

7-page Making Music and Sport Work book with practical strategies for managing both commitments
15-page Balancing Music and Sport book to support conversations, expectations and longer-term planning

HOW TEACHERS USE IT
Start conversations with students who feel they need to choose between music and sport
Support parents in understanding how both can contribute to their child’s development
Work with coaches, colleagues and school leaders to navigate competing commitments
Use the books to support planning and problem-solving
Display the posters around your school to challenge the idea that students have to be either “musical” or “sporty”

WHY IT WORKS
The goal isn’t to make music compete harder with sport. It’s to change the conversation from music versus sport to music and sport.
This toolkit gives you practical ways to build understanding between students, families and staff, helping everyone see how both activities can contribute to student wellbeing, engagement and development.
With clearer communication and better planning, students can be supported to stay involved in the activities that matter to them.
“I have this fight every year, and every year my music program loses out. Thank you so much for making this toolkit, this year I am going to be ready.”
Poppy, Head of Co-Curricular Music
