Transforming PE and Sport through BSF
Partnerships for Schools, together with the Youth Sport
Trust and Sport England, have jointly recognised the value
that PE and Sport can add to the Building Schools for the
Future Programme.
These three organisations have appointed three PE and
Sport Advisers to work strategically with key partners, PfS
colleagues and local authorities participating in BSF.
For Wave 5 authorities onwards, it is now a requirement
to establish a PE and Sport Stakeholder group to contribute
sector-specific advice to their BSF process.
The resources on these pages are primarily aimed to
support PE and Sport Stakeholder groups but will also be of
interest to anyone involved in BSF or an equivalent
programme.
Sport England
Sport England is the government
agency responsible for developing a world-class community
sport system.
The following links will be of
interest and use to BSF project teams.
