Maximising Your Income
Our structured approach ensures schools achieve the highest possible return from their sports facilities:
Child Safety & Safeguarding
Child safety is of paramount importance, and we take our safeguarding responsibilities extremely seriously.
Our policies are fully aligned with NSPCC child protection in sport guidelines, and we have developed a comprehensive code of conduct for all staff and volunteers to ensure the highest standards of safety and professionalism are maintained at all times.
Managing and letting school sports facilities
3d leisure manages and lets school sports facilities outside school hours. We handle the bookings, staff the sessions and manage safeguarding, so the school earns income from space that would otherwise sit empty.
Most schools already have the facilities. What they do not have is the staff to supervise evening and weekend hires, a booking system, or the safeguarding position worked out. Those three are what stop lettings happening.
Supervising staff are employed and trained by us. Health and safety compliance for the let space sits with us too, and the people running sessions hold current qualifications.
Frequently asked questions
School facility management is running a school’s sports facilities as a lettable asset outside teaching hours. It covers bookings and payment, supervision during hires, safeguarding, cleaning and turnaround, and reporting the income back to the school.
Sports halls, gyms, all-weather and grass pitches, studios, courts and pools, depending on what the school has and what it is willing to open up.
Staff we employ, not the school’s own teaching staff. That is the point of the service: the school earns the income without adding to anyone’s workload.
Safeguarding and child safety sit at the centre of how lettings are run: who is on site, when, which areas they can access, and how the school estate stays separated from the let space. It is agreed with the school before any booking is taken.
It depends on the facilities, the local demand and how many hours the school is willing to release. Tell us what you have and which evenings and weekends you would open up, and we can model the likely figure before the school commits to anything.
