Super Movers (launched January 2018) is an exciting project brought to you by BBC Learning and the Premier League to get primary aged children more active (and learning while they move!).
My involvement in the project was to compose, produce and master thirty tracks for the project (including the campaign’s flagship promotion song) and also to direct the majority of the vocal recording sessions.
You can see all the videos created for the project here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/supermovers. Some of the tracks I produced included; Relative Clauses with Max and Harvey, Word Families with Tyler and Sasha, Handling Money with The Next Step, Capital Letters and Full Stops, KS1 Money, Position and Direction, Adjectives and Adverbs with Jonny and Inel, Digits and Numbers with Marlon Wallen as well as all the times tables songs for the project..
Here’s some of the national coverage the project has had on BBC Breakfast:
Getting kids to get moving during the school day is the aim of a new #SuperMovers campaign launched by the @BBC and @premierleague today.

And here’s some of the amazing reactions we’ve been getting from the project too;
