Herts School Games Partnerships
SGPs, the government funded replacement organisation for the previous Schools Sports Partnerships comprise all state schools in their area and map approximately onto the old School Sports Partnership areas. Details of all Herts School Games Partnerships can be found on their county website
Owing to the Government's decision March 2013 to fund Primary school PE, September 2013, this will, in those SGPs that have Primary school buy-in, have some benefits to Secondary schools PE, too.
