SSP Leadership Pathway Information
We have many different approaches to leadership across our Partnership; some hugely successful and others which are yet to take off but the following is an outline of some of the key approaches to leadership which are currently in place.
Young Leaders Award (YLA) - This is an accredited course by Sports Leaders UK aimed at Year 5 - Year 9 but realistically carried out as an accredited leadership course at year 6 in the main. It takes half a term to cover the content and there is a great deal of flexibility as to how this works but visit their website to find out more about the YLA - visit www.sportsleaders.org/our-awardsqualifications/young-leader-award.aspx .
Sports Leaders Level One (formerly JSLA) - The Level 1 Award in Sports Leadership is a nationally recognised qualification that enables successful candidates to lead small groups in simple sport and recreational activities whilst under the direct supervision of their tutor.
The qualification teaches generic leadership skills such as organisation, planning, communication and teamwork through the medium of sport. It is a fun and practical qualification with no entrance requirements or final examinations to sit.
Level 2 Award in Community Sports Leadership (formerly CSLA) is a nationally recognised qualification that enables successful candidates to independently lead small groups of people in sport and recreational activities. The qualification teaches generic leadership skills such as organisation, planning, communication and teamwork through the medium of sport. It is a fun and practical qualification with no entrance requirements or final examinations to sit.
