YST Registered Delivery Partner 

Trusted Sports Alliance is one of 13 Youth Sport Trust Registered Delivery Partner (RDP) across England. This consists of TSA having rights to develop and promote YST programmes and initiatives across the West Midlands region. At present this involves 2 main programmes:

Well Schools and Healthy Movers.

Well Schools is a whole school approach that places as much emphasis on wellbeing as it does on academic performance. Well Schools understands that children and young people are more effective learners when they are happy and well, and that they must take care of their staff and their pupils’ wellbeing to create a culture that allows everyone to reach their potential. Well Schools therefore focuses on supporting the wellbeing of school staff, senior leaders and pupils to improve education outcomes. As an RDP Trusted Sports Alliance have the ability to support schools and Multi-Academy Trusts in going through the Well Schools audit and development process. TSA can also undertake Well Schools accreditations for schools following the audit/development process via Head of Service Chris Jew as a qualified Well Schools Peer Reviewer.

Healthy Movers

Healthy Movers improves children’s physical development, supports their social and emotional wellbeing and creates healthy, happy children that make a good level of development across the EYFS curriculum.

Children need to move from birth for good health and development. If they sit too long we will see significant problems that continue with children’s health, development, and wellbeing throughout childhood into adulthood.

If children don’t develop the basic movements and physical attributes through early childhood they are at risk of delays in their physical, social and emotional development.

We are seeing more children that need a foundation of physical development and access to play to maintain good health, make a good level of development and be ready to learn as they transition into primary school.

The Healthy Movers programme consists of training for EYFS staff to support them in delivering appropriate, fun and engaging physical activity sessions within school and privately run nurseries. The programme also includes optional resources to support parents and families continue physical activity outside of the nursery setting.
