Active Schools is a key element of the Scottish Government’s 

drive to get Scotland more active; a commitment outlined in the National Physical Activity Strategy, Let’s Make Scotland More Active. 

 

In partnership with sportscotland, West Dunbartonshire Council have a team of eight staff (1 manager and 7 coordinators) dedicated to increasing physical activity levels of school-aged children and young people.
