FOR SCHOOLS
Enhance Your School's Sport Offering with The Athlete Place
Every year, thousands of talented young athletes walk away from sport...
This is not because they lack ability, but because they lack the right support at a crucial time.
Your young athletes are only just beginning their sports journey, with so much to learn if they’re to thrive, not just in sport, but in the classroom and life beyond. Yet most lack the knowledge or tools to navigate this alone.
As a school with strong sporting traditions you want to provide holistic support, but stretched time and resources can make this challenging.
That’s where The Athlete Place comes in.
"The Athlete Place is the future of athlete support. This is something I’ve never seen before - a complete, 360-degree approach that guides not just the athlete, but the person behind the performance. It’s a game-changer for young athletes in their sport and life beyond. I wish I had this when I was starting out."

Your Duty of Care Responsibility
The Athlete Place ensures your school meets its duty of care obligations for student-athletes, aligning with KCSIE and safeguarding expectations — without adding to staff workload.
As a school, your safeguarding responsibilities don’t stop at the classroom or boarding house — they extend to every pupil who engages in sport. The Athlete Place provides expert-led digital modules that directly support your compliance with recommendations set down in the Duty of Care in Sport report (2017), and Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) and the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) wellbeing standards.
This isn’t a wellbeing ‘extra’ — it’s a risk-reducing, reputation-protecting solution that helps you confidently meet parental expectations, inspection readiness, and the emotional needs of your pupils.
Join Leading Schools Elevating Their Sporting Excellence
The best schools don’t just develop great athletes... they develop future leaders, resilient individuals, and well-rounded young adults.
The Athlete Place helps you do just that.

FAQs
1. What exactly does The Athlete Place offer our pupils?
The Athlete Place delivers expert, athlete and performance-related content across key areas such as mindset, dealing with disappointment, nutrition, sleep, and balancing school with sport — as well as topics young athletes often find difficult to talk about or seek help for, like mental health and safeguarding. By approaching these subjects in a relatable, athlete-centred way and featuring sport role models, the platform gives pupils access to the support they need now, along with knowledge that will benefit them far beyond their sport and into adult life.
It provides a valuable addition to your school’s existing sport and pastoral support.
2. How easily can this be implemented within our school?
Very easily. The platform is browser-based, quick to set up, and access is managed via pupil or school codes.
While not currently a National Curriculum resource, The Athlete Place is designed to complement your existing provision. Schools can use it flexibly during PE lessons, personal development hours, tutor time, extra-curricular sessions, or as independent study — especially for sport scholars or aspiring athletes.
Students access the platform independently, meaning no extra work for staff — and we provide full onboarding to make rollout effortless.
3. Is the content appropriate for pupils of different ages and sporting levels?
Absolutely. While the platform features elite athletes, The Athlete Place was designed to support all young athletes — not just those on performance pathways. One of our core beliefs is that expert guidance shouldn’t be limited to a select few. Every aspiring athlete deserves access to the kind of guidance that helps them thrive both in sport and in life.
To ensure content feels relevant, we offer two tailored platforms: one for ages up to 18yrs, and the other for 18+. Each is designed to resonate with its specific audience and meet them where they are on their sporting journey.
4. How does this align with our safeguarding and pupil welfare priorities?
The Athlete Place directly supports your school’s safeguarding and pupil welfare priorities through dedicated modules on Athlete Mental Health and Safeguarding. These include topics that align with the preventative, awareness-based approach promoted in Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE), such as recognising when you're struggling, how to support others, and understanding what constitutes a safeguarding concern — all delivered in a way that’s discreetly accessible, relatable, and athlete-specific.
We know many young people, especially in sport, are reluctant to speak up. That’s why we’ve designed the platform as a self-accessed, safe space — empowering pupils to seek support, build awareness, and better protect themselves and others.
5. What is the cost, and what does it include?
Licences are flexible and based on student numbers and your institution's needs. All plans include full access to our platform's content, worksheets, usage data, and staff resources.
Multi-year discounts are available. Contact us to explore options or arrange a demo.
