Foreign Language
Leader Award
Since it was established, under the
name of The British Sports Trust, in 1982 Sports Leaders UK has
been championing leadership courses for young people from the age
of 14. These courses have had their focus in sport and
more recently dance, however, we have always maintained that
it is not the sport or dance that are the most important part of
the course. In fact, sport and/or dance have simply been the means
used to teach people how to lead others. For many years teachers of
subjects outside of sport and dance have been keen to emulate the
success they have witnessed in using leadership in the PE and Dance
Departments in their own specialisms and the Foreign Language
Leader Award is Sports Leaders UK's opportunity to give
teachers the support they need to do just that.
The Foreign Language Leader Award is not concerned with using
sport to teach languages (for example scoring a game in French or
teaching a skill in Spanish). Instead the award aims to teach young
people how to lead others through basic languages activities (for
example teaching the colours or days of the week) by working to
develop their communication, organisation and motivational
skills.
