Active School Week

Active School Week (#ASW) is the biggest event of the Active School calendar and a favourite of many students, staff and families.  All schools, primary, post primary and special schools are encouraged to participate.

Participation – Inclusion – FUN

National Active School Week takes place April 27 – May 1, 2026 but if these dates don’t work for your school, you are free to organise your #ASW programme at a different time.

The Active School Week initiative aims to support schools to energise the school day for all its members, by maximising physical activity opportunities throughout the school day.

Every #ASW programme is different.

We can't wait to find out what YOUR school will do. Tag us @ActiveFlag on X and @active_school_flag on Instagram
