LEAD Sport

Leadership, Employability & Development in Sport for PKC Pupils

We recognise that our young people make a valuable contribution as leaders in sport. Our LEAD Sport pathway provides leadership, employability and development opportunities in sports for our young people in Perth and Kinross. Our programmes are designed to help young people to develop confidence in their abilities, transferrable core skills, and leadership skills. They will have the opportunity to increase their educational attainment and boost their CV. We are committed to reducing inequalities and places will be prioritised to pupils living in SIMD 1 & 2, Young Carers, Looked After Children, those with an assessed disability or ASN and teenage girls.

We provide a range of programmes for PKC pupils involved in sports that help them to achieve nationally recognised qualifications and experiences in schools, clubs, and/or Live Active settings to help them develop.

  • Getting Started - a variety of leadership courses during the school holidays and inset days.
  • Aspiring Coaches - A three-day interactive conference during the curriculum in June to give S4-S6 pupils the opportunities to gain generic leadership skills and knowledge. On completion of volunteering hours, pupils progress to their Governing Body’s coaching pathway. This is our flagship programme that is fully funded.
  • Activate - Providing opportunities in sports leadership and work experience for S4-S6 pupils who attend school during the exam diet.
  • Young Ambassadors - Each year two pupils from each secondary school in P&K are selected to promote sport, and motivate and inspire other young people to get involved in sport.

We also have modern apprenticeships in a variety of schools across P&K and with our sports development team. Recruitment for these posts is often in March and June each year.
