Sports Leaders

The leadership academy involves pupils aged 14 – 19 who have complete various Sports Leaders Qualifications including:

Level one Junior Sports Leaders Award Level one Dance Leaders Award Level Two Community Sports Leaders Award

All pupils have to complete a voluntary placement in one of the local Armthorpe Primary Schools or have to delivered an Sport and Recreational Activity project within the secondary school or community environment. The Awards/Qualifications run by Sports Leaders UK Sports Leaders UK provides nationally recognised leadership awards and qualifications that help people develop essential life skills such as organisation, motivation, communication and working with others. All of the awards and qualifications are practical - learners learn by doing rather than through written work. Assessment is practical not exam based - assessment is made upon a learner's ability to lead and demonstrate their leadership skills for a certain period of time, within a specific setting.  Learners don't need to be sports stars or prima ballerinas - instead an interest in their chosen activity, a positive attitude and a willingness to volunteer are all that is required.
