Leadership programmes are developed throughout primary and secondary school, engaging children and young people to influence and lead on school sport delivery.
There is a pathway of opportunity for pupils to gain new skills in the key areas of leadership:
Event Organisers Technical Officials Sports Leaders Decision Makers Young Ambassadors
We know there are life-changing benefits for young people who participate in sports and physical activity. They tell us about the increase in their confidence, resilience, and the overall improvement to both their physical and mental health. With Sports and Dance Leadership qualifications, we have the chance to use sports and physical activity as a way of supporting learners to develop the essential skills they need to plan, develop and deliver activities that bring these benefits to their communities.
From planning and leading an event in their school or local community, to managing themselves and others in further education or their first job, these leadership qualifications offer a solid foundation in the transferable skills they need to move from education to employment
Sports and Dance Leadership qualifications help to equip young people with experiences to get them ready for work and ready for life
