Foundations of Writing

 

5-Week Motor Skills Intervention Programme

Our 5-week intervention programme is designed to develop essential fine and gross motor skills, empowering children and young people to become confident, successful writers.

At Northampton Saints Foundation, we leverage the power of sport to Educate, Engage, and Inspire, offering targeted support for young learners who may:

  • Be working below expected writing standards
  • Struggle with handwriting and motor coordination
  • Feel disengaged from or lack confidence in writing
  • Display reluctance toward writing tasks

Programme Highlights:

Adaptable for a wide range of ages, this creative and engaging programme is built to improve key physical skills foundational to writing. Across five sessions, we target six core motor skills through rugby-based and multi-sport activities, including:

  • Hand-eye coordination
  • Hand dominance
  • Upper body strength
  • Ability to cross the midline
  • Balance
  • Object manipulation

These physical skills, integrated into interactive sessions, help students build motivation, physical control, and confidence in their writing journey.
