Quality in Sports Development
• Aim of this brief is to show you ways that we should measure quality within our organisation.
• In particular as part of this Centre’s preparation for delivering sports development programmes and signing up for an award scheme.
![Page 3: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
• Quality should be our approach to meeting customer needs, within a budget and in the most sustainable way.
• Standards of performance are usually laid down by national organisations and also building the best features we can towards accepted standards.

• Most schemes try to measure quality in the hope that quality can continue to improve.
• A quality system or scheme encourages this process of assessment , so that providers aim to continuously improve their services. This is important for us in our development.
![Page 5: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• We can use a range of measures to assess ourselves for quality purposes or use independent assessors.
• This allows us to measure quality and our effectiveness of our provision.
• It is important to use measures that are as objective as possible and provides us with a true picture of our position and delivery of services.

Two Types of Quality System

![Page 7: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Quest
• This is a national quality system that can be used for assessing the management of sport development.
• This is an industry standard developed by Sport England .
• This is aimed at sports development units in local authorities, governing bodies etc.

• As mentioned earlier sports development organisations can use either self assessment or improvement programmes.
• Or an organisation can use independent external assessment in order to achieve an award.
• The administration of the scheme is dealt with by an independent consultancy so that it is fair.

Advantages of Quality Schemes
The advantages of the schemes are:
-You can compare how they work and what can be achieved with others in the UK.
-It is a benchmarking tool.
-It helps to achieve funds for sport development.
-Quality systems should benefit all those involved in the scheme.
![Page 19: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Recognition of a quality reward will raise profile of club and result in good press reports and bring in business. The schemes “logo” creates a good reputation.

• Staff issues.
• Staff motivation issues in ensuring there are no mistakes.
• Staff need to be creative and flexible and
![Page 21: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Systems of delivery need to be implemented.
• New ideas and improvements are expected without any reward.

![Page 22: Understand How Quality is Measured in Sports Development](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54780ba35806b50b198b47a5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Full staff involvement needs to be implemented from top to bottom.

Therefore it is essential that if we are to participate in one of the schemes we must all work together in making it a success. This will be in the best interest of staff, the participants/customers and the Centre.
The aim of the scheme will be to improve performance and continue developing.
