Vision:Sports Colleges will raise standards of achievement in physical education and sport for all their students across the ability range leading to whole school improvement.
They will be regional focal points for promoting excellence in physical education and community sport, extending links between families of schools, sports bodies and communities, sharing resources, developing and spreading good practice, helping to
provide a structure through which young people can progress to careers
in sport and physical education. Sports Colleges will increase participation in physical education and sport for all pre and post 16 year olds and develop the potential of talented performers.
Ethos and key characteristicsSports Colleges are expected to develop a visible Sports College character throughout the school and within their local community which inspires their students.
Sports Colleges will:Support the Government's aspiration for all young people to have two hours high quality PE per week within and outside the curriculum.
Take an appropriate role in the Physical Education, School Sport and Club Links Strategy (see below).
Develop the skills and understanding of teachers and make imaginative use of new technologies as a means of raising the quality of teaching and learning in PE.
Extend provision and facilities to benefit all students of all sporting abilities, whilst also giving those with the greatest potential, opportunities to achieve the highest standards of which they are capable.
Work with other schools and the wider community to develop and share good practice, facilities, human and other resources with a view to improving learning opportunities for all.
Are involved in national initiatives (e.g. Step into Sport) and competitions that enrich provision in PE and sport for their own pupils and those in their partner schools.
