Friday 27th of September I had meeting with my mentor Lee Goodfellow. Lee is one of the coordinators for Active Schools Edinburgh, he is in charge of the Leith Cluster. At the meeting Lee gave me his background similar to mine both left school in forth year with only so many grades to going back to college to do sport then onto university  where he got a degree then now has career he has.  This has given me hope and potential for my future career.

Lee also gave me more information what Active Schools is and what it offers over the schools in Edinburgh.  I have heard of Active Schools before placement but didn’t realise how much they have to offer.  This has excited me, that I want to look into more information into  Active School and potentially future work there whether that is voluntary, coaching or even coordinator.

At the end of the meeting Lee was contacting a fellow coordinator to pass on my details so there is more availability to carry out placement within other clusters, possibly making more flexibility placement for myself too, but also to get the form I need to complete voluntary work within Active Schools. Lee asked me to contact disclosure just so my PVG is up to date as I need this for Placement.
