What is the Child Wellbeing and Protection in Sport (CWPS) Tool?

It is a self-assessment and action planning tool that has been developed to support sports clubs and organisations in creating a positive and safe culture for children and young people.
It is based on the Standards for Child Wellbeing and Protection in Sport , which all sports clubs and organisations should strive to meet.

Self-assess how well your club is protecting children and young people and safeguarding their wellbeing.
Create an action plan specific to your club’s needs.
Find out ways your club could make improvements by providing:
- suggested actions.
- links to resources such as guidance, template policies and procedures. There are generic Children 1st resources as well as, where available, links from your Sports Governing Body (SGB).
- links to useful organisations for further information and advice.

Your governing body and sportscotland will have access to your self-assessment but not your action plan. Children 1st will have access to this information too, but it will not be club identifiable.
Your information will only be used to help us identify and develop resources and support for clubs in achieving the Standards.

Instructions on how to use the CWPS tool are in the ‘About this Section’ on relevant pages.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) are at the top of every page.
If you still need help, contact your SGB, in the first instance, or the Child Wellbeing and Protection in Sport service (contact details for both are in the FAQs).
A link at the bottom of every page is also there if you have a concern about a child or young person.
