We were recommended to use Sports Plus by a friend who had a party some years ago, the whole day was a complete success with my son Davie still talking about how much fun he had and that it was the best party ever.

Our relationship with Sports Plus commenced in September 2009 and it very soon became apparent that they were an organisation who employed quality staff who are both friendly and professional. Their staff has clear knowledge in their subject areas and this is displayed in the level of their delivery. They also provide quality assurance by regular monitoring. Sports Plus fully appreciates the fact that all schools have different needs and always tailors their services to fit around and provides us with excellent support, as and when required.

They communicate with us on a regular basis and always keep us fully informed of any staff changes which are paramount within a school environment due to strict regulations on safeguarding.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Sports Plus as an excellent way of providing a quality service within any learning environment.

Sports Plus has provided sports coaches for both curriculum and after school activities for over 5 years. We have been delighted with the quality of service provided and in particular the planning delivery and organisation from the company. Pupils gain much from the professionalism of the staff both in terms of sports skills and social education.

I have no hesitation in recommending Sports Plus as a quality provider in fact I have done on many occasions.

We have been working with Sports Plus for over 7 years now and we have found this service to be professional and reliable. Their Sports Coaches have quickly become part of our team managing lessons with skill and enthusiasm. Lessons are delivered well and children make progress but more importantly they enjoy the lessons. Lessons are delivered across KS1 & KS2 and children behave well and are constantly involved. 

I would recommend Sports Plus to anyone.

I am delighted to be able to recommend unreservedly the services of Sports' Plus. Our Sports' Day has always been an event enjoyed thoroughly by children but regarded as extremely stressful by staff. The logistics of managing an event where all children take an active part has always been our goal but has been difficult to achieve.

Andy Mulligan and a team of sports' coaches ran our sports' day events last year and it was nothing short of superb. All children took part and were kept busy using a "Station sports" type of circuit. Each station was led by one of the professional coaches who demonstrated the skills required and coached the children through each activity. This left the class teacher to manage basic supervision rather than trying to manage an event as well. The children's behaviour was excellent mostly because they were constantly involved and physically challenged rather than sitting for prolonged periods of time on the sidelines.

The range of activities, the smooth transition from one station to another and the overall professional management left both staff and children with an immense feeling of satisfaction. The medals presented at the end of the day rounded off an exceptional Sports' Day. The staff, children, parents and Governing Body have been quick to request that we book the sports' coaches to run the event again this academic year.

The Sports Plus Scheme has enriched the education of our pupils. Their physical skills have improved dramatically and the coaches provide a wide range of exciting and stimulating activities that the children thoroughly enjoy.

We have been dealing with ‘Sports Plus’ for over six months. As a provider, the company are very professional in all their dealings with the school and the students. The management are approachable and flexible with a great willingness to accommodate the needs of individual students and groups. There has also been a willingness to fit in easily with changing timetable requirements during the school year. The range of activities offered is comprehensive and again, flexible.

Coaching staff are well trained and competent. Good, cooperative relationships with staff and students are quickly established and the quick and positive reaction to the very varied needs of individual students is strength. Coaching staff have also made this a two-way process by working proactively with school staff in addressing various communication and behaviour issues with students.

The skills focus is highly appropriate to the needs and abilities of the students and there has been demonstrable progress in a very short time.
Based on Mary Elliot School’ experience, I would not hesitate to recommend ‘Sports Plus’ as an activity provider to any school or group with a similar client / student population.
