Becoming an official Chester FC Partner School offers a unique opportunity to enrich your PE and whole-school curriculum, reward pupils, and inspire your school community through the power of football.
Our schools programme is designed to build long-term, impactful partnerships. As a Partner School, you’ll benefit from priority access to experiences, resources, and professional support delivered through our strong links with Chester Football Club.
We understand the challenges schools face and aim to complement your existing provision with high-quality, inclusive activities that support physical education, personal development, and community engagement.
As a Partner School, you'll enjoy:
Matchday Experiences: Invite pupils to Chester FC home games, including chances to take part in half-time parades, player escorts, and exhibition matches on the pitch.
Player & Mascot Visits: Host Chester FC first team players and our club mascot Lupus for motivational assemblies, Q&As, or special school events.
Stadium Tours: Bring your pupils and staff for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Deva Stadium, including a visit to changing rooms, and insight into the history of the football club.
Events: Gain priority entry to an exciting range of inter-school competitions, including the chance to reach Wembley in the National League Trust Under 11s Schools Cup.
Fundraising Support: Receive signed merchandise and matchday prizes to support your PTA, raffles, or community events.
Staff CPD & Curriculum Enrichment: Access PE-focused CPD, themed assemblies, and collapsed curriculum days tailored to your needs.
Discounted Match Tickets & Season Tickets: Access discounted tickets for pupils and families throughout the season - and receive a free family season ticket for your school to reward or incentivise learners.
We’re passionate about making every child’s experience inclusive, positive and memorable - and hopefully sparking a lifelong love for football and Chester FC.
