Our football team plays a crucial role in promoting health, wellbeing and social inclusion and ensures the boys have a focus which supports them to make positive decisions. We promote healthy choices as a team and as a result of this many of the boys have joined the gym and attend regularly to keep improving their fitness levels and socialise with one another. Being a part of our team has helped reduce social barriers for these boys and ensure they have a sense of belonging.

Irvine Royal Academy Parent Council believe that mental health and well-being should be a main focus for all young people of Irvine Royal Academy. With Youth PB Funding, we aim to promote the mental health and well-being of our young people through the development of a "safe space", and support for pupils to receive training to become Mental Health Ambassadors and MVP Mentors, for them to become a support for all pupils in the school.
