Specialist Sports Colleges are at the hub of the Government’s strategy to enhance young people’s opportunities to participate in a wide range of sports as well as raising the standards of teaching and learning of PE and school sport. The Youth Sport Trust continues to play a central role in the development and support of sports colleges. We assist schools in every aspect of the application process and work with them to realise their potential once they have successfully achieved Specialist Sports College status.
Specialist Sports Colleges position PE and sport at the centre of the curriculum, using it as a vehicle to develop and improve learning opportunities for all.
School Sport Partnerships (SSPs) are groups of schools working together to develop PE and sport opportunities for all young people.
A typical partnership consists of:
- A partnership development manager (PDM);
- up to eight school sport co-coordinators (SSCos);
- 45 primary and special school link teachers (PLTs).
A PDM is a full-time role usually based within a Sports College. They manage the SSP and develop strategic links with key partners in sport and the wider community.
An SSCo is based in a secondary school and concentrates on improving school sport opportunities, including out of hours school learning, intra and inter-school competition and club links, across a family of schools.
PLTs are based in primary and special schools and aim to improve the quantity and quality of PE and sport in their own schools.
