Literacy Leader Award

Sports Leaders UK is delighted to respond to the demand from the world of Physical Education and Sport to share our expertise in developing leadership across the curriculum.

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 specialism and the Literacy Leader Award aims to do just that.

The Literacy Leader Award is not concerned with using sport to teach literacy (for example writing about how a game might be played or reporting on a football match). Instead the award teaches leadership skills and enables successful learners to lead small groups in simple literacy based activities (for example, teaching the basic structure of a sentence) whilst under direct supervision of their tutor.

We are also confident that by learning how to lead others, your learners will develop a greater understanding of the subject area, which in turn will lead to an increase in their personal attainment.
