What is Premier League Primary Stars?

"Sometimes you feel a bit negative; you need to feel positive. When you feel positive you just bounce all the way back up and think, 'You can do this, come on!'"

This is one of the key learnings taken by eight-year-old Alfie, pictured above right, and his fellow pupils at Croxteth Primary School, from a PSHE lesson on resilience that was put on by the LFC Foundation as part of the Premier League's Primary Stars programme.

Watch our exclusive video to discover what else they learnt when they were joined by Mighty Red, the Liverpool mascot, to give a lesson in Personal, Social & Health Education (PSHE).

Premier League Primary Stars is a national curriculum-linked education programme that uses the appeal of the Premier League and professional football clubs to inspire children to learn, be active and develop important life skills. 'Resilience' is just one of many sessions that forms a part of the programme.

Primary Stars provides free downloadable resources which are available for teachers across Key Stages 1 and 2 in English, Maths, PE and PSHE and add to the existing support that clubs in the Premier League and beyond are providing on a daily basis to primary schools and their local communities.
