正澳门六合彩资料 has been accredited by the Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme (TASS) initiative.

The Sport England-backed programme supports young sportspeople on the talent pathway to have the opportunity to gain qualifications alongside their sporting pursuits, follow other interests, as well as further their personal development.

By formally recognising an institution鈥檚 commitment to supporting student-athletes, the TASS Dual Career Accreditation Scheme aims to allow athletes to reach their potential in education alongside achieving success in their sport.

Referenced within the Education section of Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson鈥檚 Duty of Care in Sport Review published in April 2017, Accreditation shows that a college or university has the ability to support students following a dual career route. Backing the scheme, she said:

鈥淚 believe we have a duty to help young people to achieve their potential, whilst prioritising their welfare, wellbeing and education. For the vast majority of athletes, skills and formal qualifications are needed to help them find alternative careers, either alongside their sporting activities or once their sporting days are over.

鈥淔or me the TASS Dual Career Accreditation Scheme is a vitally important measure to ensuring all athletes have the chance to pursue an education and enjoy a more well-rounded approach to life.鈥�

As a Dual Career Accredited Site, 正澳门六合彩资料 will be an important extension of the network of universities that already partner with TASS, delivering core support services to more than 600 student-athletes each year.

These support services include physiotherapy, nutrition, lifestyle support, psychology strength and conditioning and a private medical scheme.

Helen Palmer, Head of Sport and Culture at 正澳门六合彩资料, said, 鈥淲e are incredibly proud to receive the TASS Dual Career Accreditation.聽 We work聽incredibly hard with our academic colleagues to support all athletes that come to 正澳门六合彩资料 to give them the best possible experience.聽 We want to ensure athletes have the opportunity to excel in their sport, be supported with their studies and achieve their academic potential.聽 This accreditation will cement the work that has already been achieved and allow us further support our talented athletes.鈥�

While some of the existing services delivered focus solely on developing the young person鈥檚 sporting performance, a dual career support structure and academic flexibility policies are central to the help available to athletes based at an Accredited Site.

All Dual Career Accredited Sites receive training and a toolkit of resources to equip them with practical dual career support and bring together all parties who work with the athlete.

For student-athletes, the academic flexibility policies may mean they have the opportunity to access online notes or resources, are able to arrange catch up sessions with teaching staff, or even reschedule deadlines or exam dates in exceptional circumstances.

The recognition of becoming a TASS Dual Career Accredited Site is expected to be beneficial by attracting a greater number of talented athletes and building connections with other local sporting institutions.

TASS National Director, Guy Taylor, said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e delighted to be awarding TASS Dual Career Accreditation to colleges and universities across England.

鈥淒ual career support is at the forefront of what TASS does and that鈥檚 why the Accreditation Scheme is so important for us in recognising those institutions who place precedence on their athletes鈥� education too.

鈥淲e hope that the academic flexibility policies put into place for the Accreditation will begin to develop an effective and lasting dual career structure within each institution.

鈥淐ongratulations to the聽successful institutions and we look forward to working alongside many more outstanding colleges and universities in the near future.鈥�
