Active Schools fully encourages children with physical, sensory and learning disabilities to attend our sessions. We invite parents and carers to talk to us about their child’s specific needs and to let us know about any measures we should put in place to accommodate their child. If there is a need for one-to-one supervision of the child we would invite a carer or parent along to the sessions.
All participants at Active Schools sessions are expected to follow our Code of Conduct.

Active Schools are proud to work with many partner clubs. Partner clubs have been through governance checks to ensure these opportunities are safe, secure and have the right procedures in place to ensure an enjoyable experience on every occasion. The Clubs listed are local to the Banff Network.
These activities are being organised by the Partner Clubs. Aberdeenshire Council is not responsible for the acts and omissions of Partner Clubs and members of the public engaging in the activity do so at their own risk.
