The Fit for the Future guide has been developed by the Partnerships for Schools (PfS) PE & Sport Design Steering Group. The role of this steering group is:

• To provide advice on updates to PfS Technical Guidance notes and templates in relation to PE & Sport.
• To develop resources and guidance to support schools and local authority PE & Sport Stakeholder Groups in the design process.
• To promote good practice and innovation in the design of PE & Sport learning environments and community provision.
• The group is made up of representatives from Education, PE & Sport and the Private Sector with experience in commissioning, designing and constructing PE and Sport facilities for education and community use.

The Fit for the Future guide aims to challenge current thinking, provoke discussion and provide advice. It will be particularly relevant to BSF PE & Sport Stakeholder Groups in their role supporting schools to translate their vision for PE & Sport into a design brief.

The document consists of 4 parts:

Part 1 - From Vision to Design
Part 2 - The BSF Design Journey
Part 3 - Sample Design Solutions for 4 Imaginary Learning Centres
Part 4 - Summary of Key Points
