Course Outline
Training Provider Warwickshire Institute of Sport The Warwickshire Institute of Sport is dedicated to offering a transformative learning experience that encourages every young person to chase their dreams.

Our unique Esports and Digital Skills Programme stands out for its commitment to nurturing both highly dedicated esports athletes and those who simply have a passion for gaming, using this enthusiasm as a pathway to reintegrate them into education.

Our esports and digital programme can seamlessly integrate with sports for students interested in both areas, allowing us to engage those who enjoy gaming and harness that interest to promote broader educational engagement. At the Warwickshire Institute of Sport, we inspire students to realise their full potential.

Our alternative provision is designed specifically for young people seeking to re-engage with education, specialising in esports, gaming, and digital skills. We also offer supplementary sports enrichment across various disciplines, such as football, athletics, and boxing, tailored to individual student needs.

In addition to fostering confidence, self-esteem, and overall wellbeing, our programme equips students with valuable digital skills, core curriculum skills (Maths and English), and additional opportunities for sports performance or healthy engagement.

This unique programme paves the way for students to develop essential digital and social skills, providing a solid foundation for further education, higher education, and full-time employment.
