Pierre-alex Clark
I am writing to express my profound interest in any upcoming opportunities within your esteemed institution that align with my unique experience and qualifications. My particular interest lies in rugby coaching, but I bring a diverse range of skills and experiences that I believe could be a great asset to your school community. I spent the past four years working full-time as an Academy Coach at London Irish RFC (2019-2023), where I nurtured young talent and cultivated their skills in preparation for elite competition. I have helped athletes on their journey to successful premiership and international rugby careers. During this time, I also completed a Masters in Sports Coaching, which further deepened my understanding and knowledge of nurturing and developing athletic talent. Unfortunately, the club recently went into administration, and I am now seeking new challenges. Prior to my work at London Irish RFC, I had a fulfilling four-year tenure at the England Rugby NGB (2015-2019), working in rugby development. In this role, I was constantly seeking new and creative ways to engage people with rugby to help promote the game and widen its appeal. This experience allows me to bring innovation and creativity to the sporting curriculum of your institution. Beyond my commitment to rugby, I have a PGCE (QTS) and spent a year teaching French at Taunton School (2014-2015). During my time there, I also had the opportunity to mentor a tutor group in a boarding house, gaining valuable experience in pastoral care. My teaching experience combined with my passion for languages allows me to offer my services to the Languages Department at your institution if ever required. My love for sports extends beyond rugby and squash. I also play cricket for a local club in Hampshire, and my expertise in this sport could prove beneficial to your institution's cricket team or general sports curriculum. I reside on the premises of St Swithun 's School in Winchester with my wife and our two daughters. My wife runs a boarding house, which further adds to our familiarity with school environments and the specific dynamics involved in managing student wellbeing . Their education and development are dear to my heart, which motivates me even more to contribute to a school environment. I believe that children should be encouraged to reach their full potential, both academically and in their extracurricular pursuits. In conclusion, I believe that my blend of teaching experience, rugby coaching expertise, and passion for sports, fortified by a Master's degree in Sports Coaching, would be a great fit for your institution. I would welcome the opportunity to contribute to your sporting curriculum, and I am confident that my skills and experience would be beneficial to your students. Thank you very much for taking this time to ready my expression of interest. I am open to any opportunities you might have in mind and would appreciate the chance to further discuss how I could fit into your school community.

• Experience of managing and leading a performance rugby programme to successful outcomes.  2014 – Present: Cardiff and Vale College Director of Rugby / Lecturer:  During my most recent role with Cardiff and Vale College, my overall responsibility was to develop a high-performance rugby strategy at the College, working with and leveraging partnerships with likeminded performance based national governing bodies, regions, and educational institutions throughout the country to plan, develop, deliver, and maintain a high-performance rugby programme. No rugby was played at the College at the time of appointment. Over a period of nine years, with a primary focus on the recruitment of relevant level student athletes, relevant level staff, and making use of the sports science-based internal resource to support I have delivered, and continue to deliver, a very successful, and highly sustainable rugby academy on a domestic, national, and international level. Our playing numbers have increased from a small single squad in 2014 to the college, under my leadership, running two men’s teams and a women’s teams. I oversee the programme for each of these teams ensuring that the best quality of talent is available to all athletes to ensure that development pathways (for coaches and athletes), so that the college has a sustainable and consistent level of athlete participating in all programmes.  From a relevant level student athlete perspective there is a talent shortage and drop off in Wales at U15 to U20 levels. Armed with this knowledge and experience a focus was placed on the recruitment and retention of students seeking a dual experience within education and rugby performance. Recruitment and retention strategies used included, connect and engage, early and often with parents, guardians, family members and peers promoting an ‘individual interest’ in every learner. Use of data was used on an annual basis utilising a ‘living’ strength in depth chart with squads from Cardiff Schools U11, all the regional teams withing the DEWAR shield regional framework. From a community club perspective, I always maintained a presence on Sundays throughout the Junior club season. These are approaches that I would adapt and tailor to lead a performance rugby programme at Cardiff Metropolitan University to ensure that a consistent stream of talent, academically and sporting, locally, nationally and internationally, continued to join the University. As part of the high-performance programme at Cardiff and Vale College I have endeavoured to develop and expose our playing groups to a wide opposition pool to increase their experience playing in different environments and styles. Outside of domestic league structures this has entailed playing teams from within the UK and beyond at international tournaments and tours. The challenges these additional fixtures create have enabled the rugby programme to better develop its rugby playing pool and individual squads and has also exposed our learners to new cultures and experiences that have supplemented and enriched their academic experiences.  As part of this process, I have developed links with national and international age grade sporting unions and academic institutions, including within England, Ireland, Thailand, the Netherlands, South Africa, Japan, and New Zealand during my time at Cardiff and Vale college. These links have improved our rugby performance through shared learning experiences and CPD engagement with key subject matter specialists from different countries. These links have also enabled me to strengthen the college rugby programme from a recruitment process with learners and student athletes seeking to join Cardiff and Vale College from other areas to widen their life and rugby playing experiences. This is a network of contacts, who have students readying themselves for university education, that I would readily draw upon to support the theoretical and practical high-performance staff, Cardiff Metropolitan University for the academic, vocational, and sporting development of all involved.  Recent WRU/NGB links: https://community.wru.wales/2022/12/07/cardiff-vale-college-ready-to-clinch-double-double/ https://community.wru.wales/2022/12/08/prosser-wings-in-to-win-cup-final-at-death-for-cavc/ https://cardiffbluesblog.com/2022/12/23/cardiff-vale-college-rugby-academy-put-themselves-on-the-map/    I have worked in varying rugby programmes within Wales for the last three decades.  Currently I am Director of Rugby at Cardiff and Vale College, which has for the 2021/22 and 2022/23 Seasons achieved back-to-back A licence league wins and the Welsh Cup Championship for 2022/23. During the 2022/23 season the College also placed fourth at the World Schools festival in Thailand.  To date I have overseen the development of 38 Age grade internationals from senior level, senior 7’s, U20’s. U19, U18’s and U18’s 7’s – 120 Regional U18 representatives and growing developed from within the College Rugby programme.  Community engagement and community sporting opportunities have been achieved in recent years, initially to establish a community based 3G and changing rooms with plans to aid with the reintroduction of the once proud Butetown rugby club. This will be achieved with the assistance of Geraint John and his community team who are already involved in the planning process. This has included several taster days which have been delivered in conjunction with the colleges Butetown community education programmes.  Regional players Dan Fish, Josh Turnbull, Ben Thomas, and Olly Robinson have been provided with opportunities to further develop their coaching craft. All playing major parts in the development of the programme its coaches and players.    In my previous employment at Cardiff University as Head of Rugby I oversaw the rugby team’s promotion from the then BUSA western 2A league to Western Premier A. During m y time at the University, I overhauled the rugby playing programme so that it evolved from a social club to a High-Performance rugby programme that secured seven Welsh Varsity Wins over a 10-year period culminating in the delivery of a national varsity match played at the Principality Stadium and broadcast on national television.  At Cardiff University I also worked with and developed the University Mens 2nd and 3rd teams, the Womens team and oversaw the development of a safe and effective inter-school rugby programme.  During my time at Cardiff University, I led on the evolution of the Welsh Varsity Match from a match held at local university venues to a nationally broadcast event played at the Principality Stadium. Through my network within the University and the Welsh Rugby Union I was able to leverage and lead conversations between both institutions to foster a working relationship that led to one of the largest annual student events in the UK.  Cardiff Rugby in the community: employed by the then Cardiff Blues to deliver all on and off field issues at Cardiff RFC; Player retention, recruitment, and management; responsible for the creation and delivery of a high-performance programme on a domestic and national stage (BIC) in league and cup competitions. As DOR monthly reports were made to  the board of directors managing the limited company’s budget, discipline, and compliance requirements.  As Director of Rugby at Cardiff RFC I introduced a Wednesday night lights programme offering community rugby clubs within the Cardiff Blues Region the opportunity to play a Cardiff RFC XV on the famous Cardiff Arms Park. This was a three-pronged initiative; (1). Rebuild RFC’s relationship with the community rugby clubs. (2). Player Identification, having access and film of players withing the community clubs (3). Player development, game-based discovery, and experience.  Throughout my time at Cardiff and Vale College and Cardiff University I have developed a full understanding of the needs of and demands placed on student athletes and I have developed a holistic approach to the management and support of such athletes. I have and continue to develop strong working relationships with academic schools, teachers and lecturers to provide a full package of support to all student athletes and the institutions within which I operate.  I have previously held the following regional age grade positions: - Forwards coach at the then Cardiff Blues U20’s who were winners of the inaugural Reebok U20’s championship.  - Head coach Cardiff Blues U18’s - Head coach Cardiff Blues A squad  - Director of Rugby: Welsh Students I have amassed 11 years’ experience within the Welsh Premiership as Director of Rugby at Cardiff RFC, Head coach at Merthyr RFC and Bedwas RFC.  Latterly, I have overseen the re-development of the Glamorgan Wanders RFC First team and achieved promotion from Division 1 of the Welsh Leagues to securing a consistent presence within the Welsh Championship League.  During my time at Glamorgan Wanderers RFC I have fostered a relationship with Cardiff and Vale College and Glamorgan Wanders that is mutually beneficial to both. For those college players that are able and capable, I secured training, playing and development opportunities at Glamorgan Wanderers. This meant that I had to be cognisant of the playing demands placed on young learners twice a week but I feel I was and have been able to successfully manage this process for the last 5 years, a capability that would be utilised to support Cardiff Metropolitan University as they continue to compete on different league fronts.  I continue to provide External and internal physical and CPD deliveries with local community clubs within the Cardiff and Vale area were consistently delivered through the semester breaks, half terms and bank holidays with a focus or raising awareness, profile, and recruitment. Coach CPD deliveries with a education focus were delivered on a quarterly basis within these rugby communities.   I have twenty-five years’ experience managing multidisciplinary coaching, backroom staff, boards, committees, executive teams and boards of governors as head coach and director of rugby within Further Education and Higher Education environments and also within Welsh Premiership (Cardiff RFC / Merthyr RFC / Bedwas RFC), Welsh Championship (Glamorgan Wanderers RFC), Regional age grade U16 / U18 / U20 and A team levels. As a director of rugby and head coach I have seats on club committees and professional boards and have worked closely with institutional/educational boards and boards of governors. I have also always maintained responsibility for interviewing and developing my own coaching teams but at a club/semi professional level and within my substantive employment.  At Cardiff and Vale College, I retain line management responsibility for my coaching teams and provide regular performance and capability reviews as well as undertaking annual appraisals that are geared to the College’s own internal requirement but also consider the rugby specific aspects of the roles my teams undertake.  Analysis of my coaching team’s styles, techniques and approaches features within my work plans as much as our player and match day analysis work to ensure that we continue to develop, as a unit, both on and off the field.  Recently the work I have undertaken with Dan Fish (Cardiff Blues) had led to him securing permanent employment as a Cardiff Rugby Academy and Skills coach.  • Experience of developing workforce in a sports environment.  Most recently I have adopted a ‘coach the coaches’, mentor and education model at Cardiff and Vale College with salaried and volunteer multidisciplinary teams. This is education and development focus based, including a progressive team based tiered model where coaches can progress through team levels (First/Second teams).  Session reviews and CPD events are delivered throughout the year. • Experience of developing and mentoring rugby coaches.  Most recently I have adopted a ‘coach the coaches’, mentor and education model at Cardiff and Vale College with salaried and volunteer multidisciplinary teams. This is education and development focus based, including a progressive team based tiered model where coaches can progress through team levels (First/Second teams).  Session reviews and CPD events are delivered throughout the year. • Experience of working at a strategic level including developing business plans or strategies over multiple years.  Most recently I have led and delivered the creation, from the ground up, of the rugby performance programme at Cardiff and Vale College.  I have developed the strategic model for the programme and developed relationships with Cardiff City council to establish the new 3G pitch, changing rooms and analysis tower at Canal Park in the heart of Butetown.   During my time at Cardiff University, I led on the evolution of the Welsh Varsity Match from a match held at local university venues to a nationally broadcast event played at the Principality Stadium. Through my network within the University and the Welsh Rugby Union I was able to leverage and lead conversations between both institutions to foster a working relationship that led to one of the largest annual student events in the UK.  Cardiff Rugby in the community: As Director of Rugby at Cardiff RFC I introduced a Wednesday night lights programme offering community rugby clubs within the Cardiff Blues Region the opportunity to play a Cardiff RFC XV on the famous Cardiff Arms Park. This was a three-pronged initiative; (1). Rebuild RFC’s relationship with the community rugby clubs. (2). Player Identification, having access and film of players withing the community clubs (3). Player development, game-based discovery and experience.  • Experience of working in an interdisciplinary team of service providers (coach, physio, sports massage, medic, etc.)  I have twenty-five years’ experience interviewing, recruiting, and managing multidisciplinary coaching and backroom staff teams.  Our current provision at Cardiff and Vale College includes:  1) 1 x Full time Head of Rugby – 2 x Volunteer staff members (Positional specific) x 2 salaried hours Junior Academy development coaches.  2) Physiotherapist x 2 3) Sports Masseuse  4) Video Analysis interns x 2 5) Strength and Conditioner  6) Chef (experience of working with Clive Woodward’s WC squad) When recruiting to these roles I am always mindful of opportunities to recruit in the most cost-effective way. I make use of internal institution resource and I have also developed close working relationships with other academic institutions to recruit from academic schools where students are seeking access to vocational experience.  For example, at Cardiff and Vale College we have recently recruited student video analysists and a sports masseuse. I have also appointed a student analysist at Glamorgan Wanderers RFC.  I feel that it is incumbent on all within our field to support the development of talent, both front line and backroom to ensure the ongoing sustainability of our programmes. • Experience of successfully leading and motivating others, developing people and fostering engagement.   During my professional career, I have had the opportunity to lead and motivate numerous performance-based teams, develop individuals, and foster engagement in various capacities. I believe that effective leadership involves understanding the strengths and aspirations of team members, providing guidance and support, and creating an environment that encourages collaboration and growth. In my previous role as a Head of Rugby at Cardiff and Vale College for example I was responsible for a group of 100+ student athletes. A primary objective was to motivate them to consistently perform at their optimum level and ensure their educational and professional development. To achieve this, I implemented several strategies: Setting clear goals: I worked closely with each team member to establish individual and team goals that were aligned with the overall objectives of the performance programme. By setting clear expectations, I provided a roadmap for success and motivated the team to strive for excellence. Providing regular and consistent feedback: I believe in the power of constructive feedback to help individuals grow and improve. Scheduling regular 1.1 IDP’s with players and staff members to discuss their progress, provide feedback on their performance, and address any challenges they faced. This approach created a culture of open communication and continuous improvement. Recognising and rewarding achievements: Priority to acknowledge and appreciate the hard work, behaviours, habits and achievements of our players and staff. Whether it’s a simple word of praise in a review meeting or our more formal recognition programs, ensuring that their efforts are valued and celebrated. This recognition not only motivated individuals but also fostered a sense of camaraderie, engagement, and family within our team environments. Encouraging professional development: Strong belief in investing in the growth and development of ALL team members. Identifying their strengths and areas for improvement with the provision of opportunities for our players and staff to enhance their skills through training programs, CPD workshops, and mentorship.

Promoting a positive and inclusive work environment: Creating a culture of inclusivity, respect, and collaboration within the team. Encouraging open dialogue, welcoming diverse perspectives, ensuring that everyone felt heard and valued. By fostering a positive environment, promoting engagement, maximising training and performance productivity amongst players and staff members. Through these strategies, I was able to lead and motivate the teams involved with, to develop their skills and capabilities, and foster a high level of engagement successfully and consistently. I believe that by investing in people and providing them with the support and guidance they need, we can unlock their full potential and drive exceptional results. • Experience of developing and building strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholder, groups and customers. Constant focus on developing and building strong relationships with National governing bodies various stakeholders, both internal and external. recognising the importance of these relationships in achieving organisational goals, driving collaboration, and ensuring player, staff, and stakeholder satisfaction. Here are some examples of my experience in this area: Internal Stakeholders: Cross-Department Collaboration: Often the most neglected of collaborative opportunities. In all my previous roles I have worked closely with different departments within the respective organisations, such as the international department (Recruitment), marketing (Profile and Influence), sales (Sponsorship), and operations (Logistics). I fostered relationships by actively seeking their input, their expertise, their resource understanding their objectives, and aligning our efforts towards common goals. Regular meetings, effective communication, and a collaborative approach helped build trust and ensure effective collaboration. Leadership Support: As head coach or DOR, I valued and cultivated strong relationships with senior management and executives. I kept them informed about the team's progress, sought their guidance when needed, and provided regular updates on key initiatives and KPI’s. By demonstrating a proactive and transparent approach, I gained their trust and support, enabling me to effectively lead my team. External Stakeholders: Customer Relationship Management: Building strong relationships with customers has been a priority in all roles. Actively engaging with stakeholders to understand their needs, address their concerns, and provide exceptional service and aftercare.

Engaging in discussions, sharing knowledge, and seeking opportunities for collaboration, being able to expand my network and establish meaningful relationships with professionals from various organisations throughout the world. Overall, my experience in developing and building strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders has allowed me to foster collaboration, drive results, and ensure institutional, player staff and customer satisfaction. I believe that investing time and effort in understanding and meeting the needs of stakeholders is crucial for long-term success and growth. • Experience of managing and implementing change.  Managing and implementing change effectively is a vital skill in today's dynamic performance sport environment. Throughout my career, I have been involved in various change initiatives and have successfully managed the process. Including Change Management Planning: This involved conducting impact assessments, identifying stakeholders, and developing a comprehensive change management strategy. By involving key players, staff and stakeholders from the beginning and creating a clear roadmap, ensuring a smoother transition and increased the likelihood of successful implementation of change.  Communication and Stakeholder Engagement: I believe that open and transparent communication is crucial during the phases of transformational change. I have developed and executed communication plans to inform players, staff, and stakeholders, about the change, its rationale, and the expected benefits, utilising five W’s and a H methodology and A reimagined holistic human-centric approach to transformation. Training and Development: Change often requires individuals to acquire new skills or adapt their existing skills. To facilitate this transition, I have developed and delivered training programs tailored to the specific needs of players and staff. By providing comprehensive training, resources, and ongoing support, empowering them to embrace change and effectively contribute to the new processes or systems. Change Implementation and Monitoring: During change initiatives, taking an active role in overseeing the implementation process.

Leading by Example / Continuous Improvement: Change is an ongoing process, regularly evaluating the outcomes gathering feedback from players, staff, and stakeholders. This feedback assists in identifying areas for further improvement and making necessary adjustments to ensure long-term success. Overall, my experience in managing and implementing change has involved careful planning, effective communication, stakeholder engagement, training and development, vigilant implementation, and a focus on continuous improvement. By leveraging these skills and strategies, I have successfully navigated change initiatives and facilitated smooth transitions for my players, staff and respective institutions employed by.  • Experience of managing volunteers.  I have had the invaluable opportunity to manage volunteers whether from community club, local schools, or internal staff members in various roles within the programme. I have developed a strong understanding of the unique dynamics and considerations involved in effectively overseeing and maximising their efforts.  I have been responsible for recruiting volunteers who align with the programme and the respective institutions mission, goals, and values. Education - CPD training and Practical development: To maximise volunteers' impact, we provide them with appropriate training and practical development opportunities. This includes conducting orientation sessions, organising workshops, and offering ongoing skill development activities to enhance their experiences, knowledge, and abilities.

Regular check-ins, progress updates, and providing guidance and support have been crucial in ensuring our volunteers feel supported and engaged in their work. Building Relationships: Recognising the importance of building strong relationships with volunteers with a focus of welcoming them in an inclusive environment, fostering a sense of belonging and teamwork. High levels of communication, team meetings, and recognition of volunteers' contributions have been instrumental in establishing positive relationships, boosting morale and ultimately retention of said volunteers within our programme.  Conflict Resolution (Taking the conflict out of managing conflict): Volunteer management occasionally involves addressing conflicts or challenges that may arise. Open, respectful, and consistent communication, actively listening to concerns, and working collaboratively with volunteers to find mutually agreeable solutions lets our volunteers know they are valued and much needed part of our programme.  Recognition and Appreciation: Recognising and appreciating our volunteers' efforts is a vital part of our/their motivational climate and our retention. We have various recognition strategies such as volunteer appreciation events, certificates of appreciation, and public acknowledgments of their contributions. We have a fluid movement model referencing levels of teams placed with based on personal growth and commitment.  These initiatives have shown our volunteers that their work is much valued encouraging a continued commitment to the programmes culture.

Through these experiences, I have learned the importance of effective volunteer management, which involves recruiting the right individuals for the right job, character based. The provision of high-quality training and high levels of support, fostering positive relationships, resolving potential conflicts, recognising contributions, and continually evaluating and improving our volunteer program.

I am an accomplished rugby professional with a successful playing career spanning from 2001 to 2011. I have had the privilege of representing multiple unions in South Africa and achieving my highest accolade as a player for the Springboks Sevens in 2006-2007. Additionally, I had the honor of competing against the British and Irish Lions in 2009, which further enriched my rugby journey. Beyond my playing days, I have transitioned into a coaching role, spending the first four years as a skills coach at Cayman Rugby. During this time, I have worked tirelessly to enhance the abilities of players across various age groups, from young children to adult international rugby. I have also actively contributed to the union's operations, lending support in areas such as field repair and vehicle maintenance. My last 4 years with Cayman Rugby was as a Director of Rugby. Complementing my practical experience, I am currently pursuing a sports management program at the University of Cape Town. This academic pursuit allows me to deepen my understanding of the sports industry and broaden my skill set in areas such as leadership, administration, and strategic planning. With a strong passion for coaching,   my coaching philosophy revolves around developing well-rounded players, fostering teamwork, and instilling a strong work ethic. I firmly believe in the power of mentorship and strive to create a positive and growth-oriented environment for my athletes. Driven by my dedication to rugby and an unwavering commitment to personal growth, I am eager to contribute my skills and expertise to a new coaching opportunity. I am a motivated team player with a proven ability to connect with athletes, inspire their potential, and guide them toward success both on and off the field.

There are several ways in which one can define a successful sports programme; What’s on offer, results compared to other schools and probably the one that most people look at, success on a local and national scale. However, for me this is just the tip of the iceberg and although important shouldn’t be the main measuring stick against a department that offers so much opportunity to demonstrate success in all of its forms. A successful sports programme must first engage all involved, this includes; pupils, parents, staff and the wider school community. Without engaging all parties to work towards the same ethos and goal then any one part can have a huge effect on the end product. I believe that the experience and skill set I have developed, within a challenging and restricted environment, whilst achieving numerous regional and national successes, will enable me to add a huge amount of value, knowledge and expertise to an already successful department. I take great pride of the success and value that my current department offers to the immediate and wider school community and the contribution I have made to this success. The positive outcomes we see both inside and outside of the classroom and the value added by a department which I help manage is a key reason why Wimbledon College continues to be over-subscribed and competes strongly against some of the biggest and best schools in the South East of England.   We have done this by ensuring our programme engages, encourages and promotes a desire to participate and provide all students with the knowledge and understanding of the benefits of participation from both a performance or recreational perspective and how to excel in these environments. Within my current role I have continued to regularly review our sporting provision with the current Director of Sport, Heads of sport(s), all internal/external PE staff and wider staffing community to plan, create and implement the full PE curriculum across all key stages.   It is through the excellent working relationship I’ve developed with the Director of Sport that we have been able to grow and offer so much to so many. This includes 4 academic options, a comprehensive key stage 3 PE curriculum & Games curriculum, regular Saturday and midweek fixtures and residential tours. Through my role as Director of Rugby, I have managed the largest budget of all sports, successfully coordinated 23 teams, managed the logistics of all fixtures whilst communicated and engaged the wider community via online platforms, social media and face to face communication.   I have also demonstrated a range of skills across a variety of different roles and responsibilities that I’ve held within my time at Wimbledon College. The fact that I have been trusted with the roles of Director of Cricket and Director of Swimming demonstrate the vast knowledge and skill that I have across the whole curriculum, I have also committed to running football and athletics teams, something that I would want to continue with in this role. My commitment to sport doesn’t stop at my strongest, Rugby. This demonstrates that I am committed to developing and providing sport to as many pupils as possible. A mantra that I continue to encourage and promote within my current role. I am adept at liaising with all sporting communities to ensure that the best possible provision is available to all those that want to engage and participate.   I have a proven track record of developing outstanding individual excellence, as demonstrated by numerous current and ex-students representing Harlequins and London Irish academy age groups, two of whom have since gone on to receive full time contracts and international honours. Another of whom recently gained international experienced. We have also developed current Athletics and Football internationals.     Inside the classroom I have continued to deliver outstanding results at both GCSE and A level. I’ve over 7 years of delivering the Socio-cultural content of OCR A level across both Upper or Lower sixth, achieving outstanding results in the end of course exams. I have also demonstrated my excellent classroom ability and expertise within the AQA GCSE and Pearson Btec courses. This is evident from my 2018 GCSE entries which resulted in achieving a residual value added 1.1 – the highest value amongst all teachers at Wimbledon College. My 2020 GCSE cohort produced 86% of grades 9-4 & 29% of grades 7-9.

During the past 3 years I have ignited a real desire to continue to develop key industry knowledge/skills in a sporting profession and continue to broaden my horizons. The opportunity to work in a professional environment would enable me to both build on previous experiences within education and utilise my knowledge and experiences working in the Welsh Premiership at Pontypridd RFC and in the Welsh Rugby Unions Performance Analysis bureau.   Throughout my undergraduate degree I was fortunate to receive placement experiences with regional rugby clubs and  Welsh Premiership clubs. These enabled me to gain a wider range of real-world experiences in professional and varied settings. In turn, this allowed me to gain invaluable insight into the organisation, delivery, management of a sporting organisation. In addition, these experiences ignited my thirst for a career in the professional game. Retrospective reflection has afforded me a far greater awareness of what is expected of individuals in terms of management skills and leadership skills in a high-profile sporting organisation/s. The role at Pontypridd RFC in the Welsh Premiership became of particular interest to me due to the daily challenges presented by the coaching management workforce, which fitted perfectly in relation to subsequent actions that emanated from this personal growth exercise.   In addition to undertaking my degree in Rugby Coaching and Performance, I have been working as a Teaching Assistant through a supply agency.  This has shown me that I can combine my sporting background with a career in teaching. Working with young people has shown me how I can pass on my knowledge and love of sport.   The Welsh Rugby Union’s analysis bureau has provided me with much insight into how to deliver on the ground in semi-professional, professional and international environments. I enjoyed exploring the fundamental principles of business which underpins any successful initiative Sport runs through my veins, specifically rugby. My undergraduate degree programme has left me with a clear understanding that the exit route allows me to combine my love of sport with my increasing desire to teach.  I understand that teaching is a vocation, not a job, and am very aware of the dedication and hard work it takes to provide pupils with the best learning opportunities I have looked to develop my Industry focused CV appropriately during my time at USW. I have gained my WRU Level 2 Coaching, WRU Level 1 Coaching, TAG coaching & refereeing

Andrew Stewart
  To introduce myself feels like a good place to start with, then adding more specific details and context regarding my application. While I was born in Brighton in the UK , after several years of working abroad I ended up residing in Sweden for the last 19 years. This August I moved back to live in Hampshire, and I am currently writing my thesis M.Sc in sports coaching and pedagogic, at Cardiff Metropolitan university, which is due early 2023.    I am very passionate and dedicated about my sports coach journey, which has included coaching and teaching in Sweden the last 11 years for both youth and seniors. I am continually looking to develop my knowledge, or learning new techniques & educational skills. This has included my attendance of numerous CPD events such as with Pierre Villepriux, and both the Canterbury Crusaders and Northampton saints in both the academy and first team training environments. However I think my various endeavors including the academy program and center of excellence in Sweden, my teaching experience and current postgraduate studies in sports coaching and pedagogy,  mirror those accountabilities you are looking for in  an applicant as director of sport or director/head coach for a school /academy rugby program.    Having previously both managed and implemented educational and sport support programs, I believe I have the skills and competencies to fulfill the role you have advertised, and  what institutional or certification/ knowledge, needs to be learnt and completed, I would of course be keen to develop as a life learner.    I have liaised with players, parents,educational institutions and various stakeholders in previous roles. This included providing individual support (asynchronous or in person), tracking progress and reporting to the specific students/players and stakeholders, and included providing pedagogical recommendations. My own life experiences and previous employment provide unique perspectives both as rugby coach, teacher and parent, that can support these athletes/Students in their journey.    I am a keen believer that student/player welfare is an important factor that contributes in supporting both success on the pitch and in achieving the academic or vocational  endeavor each individual has chosen to pursue. These roles are about supporting people and their individual needs,in excelling and being successful, and this I believe is an area where I have shown a proven track record of success.

Ryan Cartwright
My name is Ryan Cartwright. I am an ex-professional cricketer/athlete, physical education teacher and sports coach with a specialisation in cricket. I am currently doing a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education), and I will be a fully qualified Life Orientation teacher in the Senior and FET (Further Education and Training) phase in December 2022.   I am passionate about people, sports, education and developing young leaders for our future. The impact my teachers and coaches had on my life and their influence has had a profound effect on how I have lived my life, how I deal with people and the relationships that I’ve built over my 30 years.   There is a special link between sports and education. There is so much learning and opportunity for growth in the sports field and that is something that consistently motivates me in making a positive impact on the learners that I am working with. I believe in looking after the needs of the individual that leaves a major impact on that child’s life is the priority. There is so much power we hold in education and that’s why I feel that it’s even more reason to use that power with responsibility. I believe that good people make good teachers and those good teachers are people that put others first.   I’d like to pursue teaching Physical Education and Life Orientation. My personal goals and aspirations include completing my PGCE this year (2022) and then working within a school with a vision, ambition and drive that equals or supersedes my own. I am a student of life and a life-long learner. I love a challenge and improving myself consistently, this is a huge part of my aspirations and therefore my personal development is crucial in continually progressing myself for me to be able to successfully provide a high-quality work ethic and service to those I work with and teach. My experience in education has allowed me to build children up, creating an environment where individuals can express themselves, grow, and learn effectively. This was my goal all along. I believe strongly in effective communication and teaching children how to improve on their communication skills. Working within a school will allow me to make an impact on a personal level. It will also allow me to lead by example and be a positive role model in a child’s life. Sport has always been my platform; therefore, coaching has been at the forefront of my working relationships and connections with the people that I have worked with. I have over 10 years of sports coaching experience. I would consider myself open-minded, honest, caring, and intuitive. I am a people person and passionate about growth and development. Teaching speaks to my interpersonal qualities, besides creating an environment for children to learn within their lives. I’d like to think that my classroom is not bound by its four walls or the boundaries of the field, but rather making the world their classroom, learning in as many facets of their lives. This leads to good human beings, not just students, being present in a world that is forever changing, and finding their voice and power to change the world in their vision. The passion for what I do is seen by those around me, creating an environment that always leads to an unquenchable thirst for growth. I want to help build foundations for children to use and flourish from. Everyone has the potential to be great, they just need some help. I like to view it as a fire that I have within that will spread to all the children I teach and coach. My purpose has always been to change the world, I guess that world is not my generation's world but the generations to come. I am currently employed at a private school in White River, South Africa, called Uplands. I work with children from the ages of 5 to 18. I am a physical education teacher, and sports coach, with a specialised focus on cricket. I have the role of Head of Cricket at Uplands Preparatory School (ages 5 to 13) and manage the cricket operations within the Preparatory School. I also coach cricket at the College (ages 14 to 18) and have been completing my teaching practice there too. I teach Life Orientation (PHSE, Life Skills). I am looking at potentially immigrating to another country, particularly Europe or the United Kingdom, but am also open to other options abroad.
