Dallaglio RugbyWorks
At the Dallaglio RugbyWorks we work with teenagers that for a variety of reasons, find themselves excluded from mainstream education and so reducing their life chances. Through an intensive long term skills development programme based on the values of rugby, we go into the Alternative Provision (Pupil Referral Units) on a weekly basis, working with the young people over a period of three years to ensure that they get into sustained Employment,Education or Training. Government stats currently indicate that only 1.4% of young people in Alternative Provision achieve 5 GCSEs (including Maths & Eng) compared to 53% in mainstream. Failure to improve outcomes for this population segment comes at a high societal cost: a staggering 80% of young people in the criminal justice system were excluded from school. But, our award winning programme, RugbyWorks, is making a difference to these young people, over 82% are still in sustained education after 12 months of leaving AP, this is compared to 57% of their peers not on our programme.
