摘要:T he 'Fit to Succeed' (FtS) programme began in schools in the late 1990s. The programme grew as the Exeter School Sport partnership (ESSP) developed and in particular the ESSP hub site St Luke's Science and Sports College. The impact of the 'Fit to Succeed' philosophy of the St Luke's College is identified as outstanding practice in reducing childhood obesity and helping ensure the appropriate physical development of students; "the personal development and well-being of students is outstanding" (Ofsted Jan 08). The College is committed to the ethos of their students being 'Fit to Succeed' and the impact that this could have upon their academic achievement
