High Performance Programme (HPP)
PART OF THE SPORTS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMME
Introduction
Each year the Habs Boys Sport team selects a number of students who show exceptional promise and commitment to sport at Habs for inclusion in this outstanding programme.
These students will be placed in either our Gold, Silver or Bronze High Performance Programme (HPP) which will support them during their time at Habs and help them to maximise their potential. The selection for each level is based on their current level of sporting performance, expected potential for further development, and with an expectation that students will act as positive role models as part of the Habs Way. Each level will reflect the outstanding ability shown by our students across a broad range of activities with those competing regularly at county, academy, regional and national levels featuring across all three bands. The Director of Sport has the final decision regarding the selections made.
Sports scholars will automatically be placed in the Gold programme, alongside pupils who have demonstrated a commitment and ability to play sport at the highest level.
The Habs Way
HPP students are expected to act as ambassadors for sport at Habs and to model the expectations highlighted as part of the ‘Habs Way’.
We are always well presented, articulate and act with kindness towards others.
We are fiercely competitive but always play and act with respect and sportsmanship.
We show confidence without arrogance and take 100% responsibility.
We are always striving to be the best that we can be and expect to see excellence everywhere.
We understand that everyone is learning and show empathy for others as we adopt a people first and everyone is welcome approach.
We encourage everyone involved to challenge unhelpful stereotypes, encourage allyship, demand a zero-tolerance approach to bullying or behaviours which might belittle others, and support everyone in finding a safe place in which to enjoy physical activity.
