The Legacy and Sustainability plan for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games — 87 THE EDUCATION IN MOVEMENT PROGRAMME TO EDUCATE CHILDREN A pilot project carried out during the bid phase in collaboration with NGO PLAY International 22 , Paris 2024 and UNICEF aimed to uphold the Olympic values of respect, friendship and excellence to support children’s education in several regions – all while they played in the school playground. Building on this experience, Paris 2024 continues to promote Education in Movement, which provides a method to teach 6- to 12-year- old children through sport, keeping them active and encouraging them to develop community spirit. It uses a tried-and-tested programme. Paris 2024 strives to develop the Education in Movement programme in all priority education network (REP) and reinforced priority education network (REP+) schools in the Seine-Saint-Denis department and the city of Paris. Available to everyone on the Generation 2024 platform, this programme can be rolled out on a wider scale all over France, including overseas and in the education hubs network, during school hours or after school.
