1/6 Briefing for CentresUpdated resources for Sport and Dance
Leadership available now through LEAP
In the April Briefing for Centres we informed you that an updated Extraordinary Amended
Specification for Sport and Dance Leadership qualifications would be available for courses starting on or
after 1st August 2021.
We are excited to let you know that the adapted Tutor Resources, Learner Evidence Records* and
quality assurance forms are now available to access through LEAP.
If you have a course registered with start dates after 1st August, simply login to your LEAP account to
your LEAP account to gain access to these.
*Centres must apply for a course and confirm learner numbers to be able to access the Learner Evidence
Covid-19 principles of change
Records.
What has changed in the Extraordinary Amended Specifications for 2021/22
The objective for each qualification at every level remains the same – to create Sports Leaders and
Dance Leaders that can demonstrate their leadership skills to their community and to realise their
potential.
We have taken the decision to continue to offer Extraordinary Amended Specifications for 2021/22.
Important information
These remain largely the same as those offered this year, but the demonstration of leadership hours is
changing to align with changes we have made to qualifications outside of Scotland. The changes in
leadership hours will improve the overall learning experience for learners.
The following table summarises the changes that have been made. Click here to remind yourself of
what has changed.
Qualification Demonstration of leadership hours required for courses with start dates between 1st
August 2021 and 31st July 2022
Level 4 1 hour
Level 5 5 hours
Level 6 2 hours of event leadership
12 hours of leadership made up of:
4 hours in the learner’s community
8 hours leading activities to at least two of children, older people or disabled people

2019Centre Approval for 2021/22 required for all
Centres from 1st August 2021
As mentioned in the April Briefing for Centres, all Centres are required to be given Approved
Qualification Centre Status for 2021/22.
What you will need to do is:
1. Register for a Centre Approval webinar and complete the short declaration survey
2. Attend the webinar
3. If you are a new Centre or if your Centre was not given Approved Qualification Centre
status in 2020/21, you will be sent a link to complete a Centre Standards Declaration Form.
4. If required, attend a short Centre Approval support meeting
Once this is completed, we will contact you to confirm your Approved Qualification Centre
status for 2021/22 or to give you actions before approval is given.

3/6 Briefing for Centres
Briefing for Centres October 2019Reminder: Quality Assurance Review for summer
2021 certification
Many of you have already completed your Quality Assurance Review this year and your
learners have been awarded certificates as a result. Thank you and well done for completing
your courses during the disruption experienced over the past year.
There are still many Centres that are yet to either claim certificates through LEAP for
completed courses or to respond to requests from the SLQ Sports Leaders Quality Assurance
Team to organise you Quality Assurance Review.
Quality Assurance Review availability is limited in July and priority is being given to Centres
with Level 3 courses due to the UCAS points deadline.
It is likely that Quality Assurance Reviews for Centres with Level 1 and 2 courses (and Levels 4,
5 and 6 in Scotland) that require certification will now take place in August or September.
If you have been contacted by a member of the team, please respond so we can plan in your
Quality Assurance Review as soon as possible.
If you have completed all the requirements of the course and have not been contacted by the
team, please claim your certificates via LEAP and we will contact you with further instructions.
Not going to complete your course(s) before 31st July 2021 as intended?
Please email contact@sportsleaders.org to request a change to your course end date. Simply:
1. Start your message with ‘End date change request’ in the subject line
2. List the courses you need end dates changing on
3. Give the new end dates you would like to change them to
Note: Learners names and dates of births must be registered on courses to allow a change to
course end dates.

CentresRegister your 2021/22 Courses and Receive Free
Learner Evidence Records (LERs)
After a year of changes, adaptations and restrictions, we’re sure that you will be looking ahead
to the new academic year more than ever, ready to hit the ground running in 2021/22.
As we move towards the completion of this academic year and start thinking about next year,
now is a great time to be planning ahead, so we wanted to let you know that we will again this
year be offering FREE PRINTED Learner Evidence Records (LERs), delivered directly to you for
all 2021/22 courses registered with learner numbers before Friday 23rd July.
LERs play an essential role in supporting learners with the completion of their courses and the
development of their skills, providing them with a demonstrable portfolio of their progress and
affirming their work by highlighting their success.
Over the past 12 months, we’ve updated and adapted our qualifications and LERs to ensure they
reflect the world in which we now live, including creating a series of Learner Support
Challenges to help them stay connected with learning and skill development.
To find out more about this offer and to register your interest in receiving FREE LERs for
your Sports and Dance Leadership Qualifications in 2021/22, click here.
Run the London Marathon for Team Sports Leaders:
Deadline Extended!
SLQ Sports Leaders is looking for runners to take part in the 2021 Virgin Money London Marathon in
October and represent Team Sports Leaders.
With the marathon being held in October this year, rather than its usual slot in April, we have
extended the deadline for entries until Friday 9th July. If you’d like to take part on behalf of Sports
Leaders, you’ll need to train for the race and raise £1,000 in charity donations.
This year’s Virgin Money London Marathon is set to be the biggest ever, with 50,000 runners taking
part in the day in the capital, as well as a further 50,000 posting times via virtual entries.
To be considered for one of our five London Marathon places, please complete this form.

Update on eCertificates and printed certificates
Over the past year we have moved to awarding eCertificates for all of our qualifications. We will
continue to offer eCertificates for all courses as part of the registration fees in the 2021/22 year.
We are currently reviewing whether there is still interest in printed certificates and whether Centres or
learners may want to purchase printed certificates for future courses in addition to the eCertificates.
Please can you complete this short survey to let us know your thoughts. Your feedback is really important
in helping us improve our offer.
