Youth Sport Trust and Sport England are working with the DCSF and the DCMS on ways to help local delivery partners offer all young people aged five to 16 the opportunity to participate in five hours a week of PE and sport (three hours for 16 to 19 year olds). The first outcome of this work is the new ‘Guide to Delivering the Five Hour Offer’, a document which outlines the vision for the strategy and the five hour offer in particular.
The guide brings together existing information on the aims of the strategy and the roles and responsibilities of those involved, for all those who play a part in delivering five hours of PE and sport to young people in England.

Changes to the PESSYP Survey 2009-10
Gender - All questions will now ask for a separate response for girls and boys with the exception of: Q9: For which sports do you have links to clubs and Q10: What is the total number of pupils in each year group who have participated in one or more community sports, dance or multi-skill clubs with links to the school during this academic year?
Timing - The timing of the survey has changed; surveys will now be distributed in April for completion by June. the results will be published in September.
Sportsmark/Activemark - The awarding of Sportsmark/Activemark has been deferred this year. No new awards will be made this year although schools that received the 2007/8 award can continue to use it for this academic year. A new award is being developed in consultation with the SSP network and will be announced in 2010.
