Developing Youth for the Future

Motivating and Challenging Sports Programmes in Line with National Curriculum

Dots

We aim to deliver motivating, challenging sessions, lunchtime and after-school clubs carefully planned in line with the National Curriculum. This ensures appropriate levels of progression across age groups in order to support children and ensure they achieve age related expectations. We offer a number of different sessions listed below.

Our Activities

PE

YDP work alongside schools to support them in meeting the curriculum demands relating to PE. We offer high-quality, long term PE solutions which we believe, don’t just meet government targets for PE activity classes, but surpass them. We like to work cooperatively with all schools to ensure we achieve goals together through supporting the school’s values, ethos and standards.

Motivational Boxercise

The motivational boxercise program is a 10 week course, aiming to get the young people involved a Bronze Award in Boxercise. The Bronze Award is the first level of the qualification but if students want to continue on the course they can progress on to achieve Silver, Gold and finally a Young Leaders Award. Those that complete the whole process can then assist YDP in delivering Boxercise sessions.

Mind Matters

YDP Mind Matters has been developed by the YDP team to educate positive life choices. We deliver motivational assemblies and presentations to students, adults, staff, sport teams, workplaces and community groups to help inspire and motivate YOU. Workshops are also delivered to offer encouragement through inspirational messages and discussions are encouraged via group debates and worksheets covering topics such as: Staying Safe Online, Anti-Bullying, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion plus various current social issues. We will also invite guest speakers to educate the children on the various subject matters.

Extra Curricular Clubs

YDP offer a wide range of clubs, including before-school, sensory circuit, alerting organising calming, lunch club & after school clubs. YDP Clubs are being delivered in both Primary and Senior Schools.

YDP Music

These sessions offer a modern-day music experience, designed to engage and inspire all young people, but specifically support children who find the traditional classroom environment struggling. Learn to write your own music, individually or as part of a group, on a given or self-selected topic. The group will then have the opportunity to perform their song, record it and transfer it onto their own personal disc.

James Robertson, Gunthorpe Primary School Deputy Head Teacher
“As a school we have been working closely with Youth Dreams project for nearly two years. They have provided well organised sessions, run by friendly and well qualified staff in a number of different sporting and fitness areas. I would highly recommend Luke and his team at YDP to anyone.”
Victoria Blackwell, Parent
“Youth Dreams Project have changed the usual average after school clubs and P.E lessons, into fun, positive and motivational sessions that not only give children confidence but give them the access to sports that would not normally be available in schools. The half term sports camps provide affordable childcare, which get my children active in team sports and activities. From Boxercise to dance I could not fault the service and coaches.”
Werrington Primary School Head Teacher said
"Thanks for organising both events. Both were successful and well organised. Children enjoyed their games and had plenty of football – having a plate competition is a good idea."
Mrs Sonia Kendal Principal
“Elvis is an outstanding coach, he knows our children well and has great behaviour management too. Ofsted said that the lessons he was teaching were superb with excellent pupil engagement and behaviour. Thanks again for your support over this time”.

Northborough Primary School PE Co-ordinator
"YDP are such an integral part of our school now that we couldn’t imagine our PE lessons without them. They ensure that all of our pupils are pushed to succeed in every sport and given the tools to compete in various events. They offer a wide array of competitions and clubs for everyone and adapt lessons to ensure a fun experience."
Matthew Van Lier
Principal, Stanground Academy
“YDP are now a fully integrated partner in our academy, they share our values and support the delivery of our vision. They have high expectations of themselves and the pupils who are enrolled on their courses. We work together in harmony and their innovative approach to pupil recruitment has assisted in the growth of our Sixth Form. We are delighted with the collaboration and look forward to the year ahead.”
Becky Dickson
Deputy Headteacher at St Thomas More
Since we have engaged with YDP, we have noted a significant improvement in the children being able to build relationships and work in partnership. The coaches spend time getting to know the pupils. They know what motivates and inspires them and use this knowledge to get the best out of the children. The pupils are engaged, enthused and are successful. The children look forward to their sessions all week and it provides a time for them to bond and develop their social skills and self-esteem! Thank you YDP!
Richard Lord
Principal, SIS Friedrichshafen
I have worked with YDP for ten years in three different schools both in the UK and in Germany. Our students have benefitted in a number of ways, from group work and mentoring to bespoke camps during the school holidays. The feedback that we continually receive from students, parents and teachers is emphatically positive, with the enthusiastic and can-do approach of the YDP team members always singled out. We look forward to working with YDP for many more years to come.

Motivational Boxercise

The YDP Motivational Program is currently being delivered in several schools across Peterborough.

What is it?

The motivational program is a 10 week course, aiming to get the young people involved a Bronze Award in Boxercise. The Bronze Award is the first level of the qualification but if students want to continue on the course they can progress on to achieve Silver, Gold and finally a Young Leaders Award. Those that complete the whole process can then assist YDP in delivering Boxercise sessions.

What is Boxercise?

Boxercise is non-contact exercise based on boxing training. Students are taught a variety of punches, and defense techniques, incorporated with physical activity.

Who is this for?

This program is open for all students but it can be particularly beneficial to those who have low self-esteem, lack motivation or are disruptive in lessons. It can also be useful for those students who may feel stressed due to a heavy workload, exams or coursework.

How does it benefit the student?

This course provides an outlet for all young people to release stress and focus on something positive. The Boxercise course not only supports students in feeling fitter, and healthier, it can boost confidence and self-esteem. Through expertly

planned sessions, students are taught discipline, respect and encouraged to make positive life choices.

Does the program work?

The reported results indicate that this program works successfully. In one school, over 80% of the group’s behavior had improved while being enrolled on this program. The same school also reported a significant improvement in attendance for 90% of the children who participated in the program. Most importantly, every single student informed both the YDP team and their school, that they felt more confident and motivated.
