  • A Performance Overview of Sport in Scotland
    A performance overview of sport in Scotland Prepared for the Auditor General for Scotland April 2008 Auditor General for Scotland The Auditor General for Scotland is the Parliament’s watchdog for ensuring propriety and value for money in the spending of public funds. He is responsible for investigating whether public spending bodies achieve the best possible value for money and adhere to the highest standards of financial management. He is independent and not subject to the control of any member of the Scottish Government or the Parliament. The Auditor General is responsible for securing the audit of the Scottish Government and most other public sector bodies except local authorities and fire and police boards. The following bodies fall within the remit of the Auditor General: • directorates of the Scottish Government • government agencies, eg the Prison Service, Historic Scotland • NHS bodies • further education colleges • Scottish Water • NDPBs and others, eg Scottish Enterprise. Acknowledgements: Audit Scotland prepared this report for the Auditor General for Scotland. This study was managed by Irene Coll and supported by Rebecca Seidel and Gareth Dixon, under the general direction of Barbara Hurst, Director of Public Reporting (Health and Central Government), Angela Cullen, Assistant Director of Public Reporting (Central Government) and Bob Leishman, Portfolio Manager (Tourism, Culture and Sport). We have had the generous support of the Scottish Government and sportscotland. In addition we would like to thank the following organisations for providing valuable information and insight: Cricket Scotland, Event Scotland, Forestry Commission, Royal Caledonian Curling Club, Scottish Association of Local Sports Councils, Scottish Athletics, Scottish Hockey Union, Scottish Sports Association, Scottish Rugby Union, Scottish Universities Sport and the Sports and Recreational Trusts Association (SPoRTA) Scotland.

Copies of the 10 steps to Safeguarding Children in Sport document can be made available in other formats and languages. Please contact the Safeguarding in Sport Service for more information. www.safeguardinginsport.org.uk Email: [email protected] 2 Guidance: Children’s Wellbeing in Scotland It is important to recognise what we mean by children’s wellbeing. As part of Scotland’s national approach to ‘Getting it Right for Every Child’ (GIRFEC), the wellbeing wheel demonstrates the eight indicators that are believed to be essential for a child’s overall wellbeing. By having a universal language and understanding for all people that work with children, collectively we can contribute to promoting, supporting and safeguarding a child’s wellbeing whether they are in an educational, health, community or sports setting. It is essential that in sport we understand not only how participation in sport contributes to these wellbeing indicators, but also what we need to do if we are ever worried that something is impacting a child’s wellbeing. As part of the ‘Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014’, the concept of wellbeing and the GIRFEC approach is now enshrined

The overall objective was to undertake an impact assessment highlighting the success or otherwise over the past two years (April 2014 to mid-2016) of SSS’s current strategy in meeting its stated aims and the expectations of funding partners. The detailed aims were to critically assess: the progress of SSS against its stated aims and the conditions of investment from funding partners; the impact of its regional delivery, in terms of competitions, development, and member support; and the profile of SSS and its relationships with other agencies across education and sport. This document comprises a summary drawn together from the full Best and Randak report, to be published on the SSS website by the end of October. Methodology Following discussions with SSS, the following methods were used to obtain the information and views needed to meet the objectives of the review: 1 A trawl of published and unpublished documents from SSS itself; its members; its partners including SGBs, BUCS, sportscotland and the SFC. 2 A substantial questionnaire to sports-related staff, elected students and volunteers - gleaning 64 responses with valuable quantitative and qualitative information. 3 A short email questionnaire to a limited number of other organisations with links to SSS, resulting in five responses.
