The Youth Sport Trust, a group of leading Sports Colleges & Taecanet have agreed to collaborate on a project to develop and trial web based e-learning resources in PE for Key Stage 4 GCSE & BTEC qualifications.
The collaboration was initiated by Tony Downey, Headteacher at the Blessed Robert Sutton Catholic Sports College with strong support from the Directors of Sport & PE teachers at Charters, Cavendish & Kingdown Schools. The collaboration is focussed on creating e-learning resources for PE at Key Stage 4 GCSE and BTEC for delivery through the Taecanet Springboard service and trialling in 20 schools in the autumn term. A report containing the results of the trial will be produced and the findings presented to the Sports Colleges Conference in 2009.
Development of content is currently making good progress with approximately 40% of content completed by the teachers involved in the project.

Further information on the project will be made available here as the development, testing and trialling of the service proceeds.
