School Games development support funding

Girls running

Sport England has today (29 March 2012) issued two calls for expressions of interest to determine which organisation(s) should:

  • deliver development support to schools, Governing Bodies of Sport and others to ensure their engagement across levels one to three of the School Games between April 2013 and March 2015; and
  • develop and stage the level 4 National Finals of the School Games in 2013.

The development support will be funded via two Lottery funding awards between Sport England and the successful deliverer(s).  The successful deliverer(s) will be identified through a three stage process:

Stage 1

Organisations are invited to submit an expression of interest by 4 pm on Thursday 3 May 2012.  Submission will be assessed and the top three organisations will be invited to move to stage two.

Stage 2

The organisations moving to this stage will be invited to present their proposals to an assessment panel.  The panel will make a further assessment against the published criteria and then select the deliverer(s). 

Stage 3

The deliverer(s) will be invited by Sport England to work up and submit a solicited Lottery funding application (one for levels 1-3 and one for level 4).  The applications will be determined by the Sport England Board at their September meeting and will be subject to a strict assessment of value for money and the demonstration of need. 

The following links take you to the calls for expression of interest documents and the response forms.
