Sports Leaders News Mrs Allen (School Sports Co-ordinator)

Our sports leaders are usually extremely busy supporting sporting activities not only in school, but also within our partner primary schools and across the wider community. This year for the start of the year initially we are looking at alternative ways for our sports leaders to work and we will let you know how we get on.

Sports Leaders UK Course Update

This means the programmes have a reduced practical content in the number of hours of leadership and the delivery can be under the banner of community that means with peers, in bubbles, at home and digital.
