“We love our Actions Mats and we think they are great!”
Hertingfordbury Cowper, Primary School
“We have used the mats for pupils who have SEMH or SLCN as their EHCP need and all pupils have enjoyed the use of the mats.”
Sandwell School
“Mindful mats are a perfect way to give pupils the opportunity to support their regulation, focus their minds and develop their proprioception. They work as an excellent addition to a sensory circuit.”
Anthony Wilkinson – PE Lead, Parklands School
“These mats seem to be different, every time we get them out the kids want to use them. You can use your sports premium money, which is perfect because for that you have a whole list of things that you have to check off when you are investing that money.”
Becki Powel, Deputy Head, The Wenlock School
“Purchasing your products has revolutionised and improved our early years and KS1 PE provision. Quality resource that I can highly recommend”
Dr Kenneth Noisewater – Headteacher, George Spicer Primary School, London
“They are simple to use yet really really effective.”
Richard Lightfoot, PE Coordinator
“The mats are really safe, if anyone falls over it wouldn’t hurt if they are on the mats. It is definitely a breath of fresh air for me, I’ve never seen anything like this.
Andy Olde, PE Coordinator
“There is a good variety of activities on each mat making sure that there is something different to do on each station. They Allow children to work in small groups and are lightweight and portable to enable children to move them easily.”
Sue Dyer, Hobletts Manor School
“Fantastic resource that as a school we use in a variety of different areas. Perfect for the children to set up themselves and the visual clues are excellent ensuring children remain focused on the task.”
Andy Olde, PE Coordinator
“As a small school, we must compete with larger schools and the sports premium is all based on pupil numbers. So of course, we don’t have as much as the larger schools. But we want to make sure we can offer our children the same opportunities as larger schools. We feel like we are managing to do that right now.”
Sonia Fenner, Headteacher at Pirton Primary School
“Our after school children request them every day and play for hours making up their own games.”
Heather Hudson, Managing Director, Best Bedfordshire Schools Trust
“We used them primarily to help children regulate. They were most effective when children were overstimulated and finding it hard to sit still/focus on their learning. Some children sought them out when upset as a safe space to sit and simply traced the markings to help them calm down. ”
St Michael’s School
“At Sandwell we have used these mats in our regulation rooms. The pupils have used them to concentrate their energy on following the movements on the mat. The mats give the pupils a level of challenge for the physical moves without needing to much adult support.”
