Sports Plus and the Individual
Programme for High Achievers (IPHA)
The challenge confronting many athletes is how to maintain the balance between sporting
and academic commitments. The Kristin Sports Plus (Middle School) and IPHA Programmes
(Senior School) help our elite athletes manage school work more effectively, without
compromising their sporting objectives, and enables them to succeed both on and off the
sporting stage.
Through a structured planning process with students, parents, Deans and Sports Plus staff
and through individual athlete assessment, Sports Plus and IPHA gives all eligible athletes the
ability to balance high levels of sporting performance with their academic goals.
An Individualised Education Programme will be designed for students involved in the Sports
Plus or IPHA Programmes.
Middle School: Sports Plus Programme
Mission Statement
“To provide an environment for high-achieving Kristin Middle School
athletes which allows them to fully develop both their sporting
and academic potential.”
Vision
The Sports Plus management team at Kristin is committed to providing a superior experience
for Kristin’s elite sports students in the Middle School.
“To foster the highest standards of all-round educational achievement for our students
by providing a balanced life approach within the curriculum, catering for each student’s
individual development: physically, intellectually, socially, emotionally and spiritually.”
Sports Plus students will be selected from applications.
Programme Description:
•Identify talented students who have an opportunity to further their careers in sport
•Create an environment where students are challenged in their chosen subjects but are
not overloaded with curriculum volume, allowing for recovery and study time outside of
training hours
•Provide support networks that understand and cater for the demands that are placed
on elite sports people
•Create a working space that reflects the importance of the programme and welcomes
external coaches
•Create strong community links
•Provide a balanced learning environment that fosters the student’s overall needs and
addresses their personal well-being

All students who attend Kristin Middle School are eligible to apply to be part of the Sports
Plus programme. Students in Year 6 will also be identified and encouraged to apply as they
enter Year 7.

•Minimum Regional ‘A’ Age Group, Open Level or national ranking in an individual or
team sport. Note that competing at Regional ‘A’ level is no guarantee of acceptance
•Students come highly recommended by managers and coaches

“To provide an environment for high-achieving Kristin Senior School

Vision
The IPHA programme is designed for high-achieving Senior School athletes who demonstrate
a very advanced ability in one or more sports. It aims to provide eligible students with the
opportunity to pursue sporting excellence in a supportive educational environment with the
flexibility to accommodate both sport and school commitments.
Programme Description
Students will be selected from applications. The IPHA programme caters for very elite
athletes and is tailored to meet the individual needs of each student. This is achieved in close
consultation with the relevant House Deans so that the students’ choices do not adversely
affect later subject choices.
The school will provide an educational environment which is sufficiently flexible to provide
individual support for all areas of the athlete’s academic and sporting commitments. This
flexibility may allow students to negotiate deadlines for completion of set work in periods of
intense training/competition, after consultation with their House Dean.
Criteria for Selection:
•Competing at a minimum of National Secondary Schools level, New Zealand Squad, Age
Group Team or Age Group Squad in an individual or team sport
•High recommendations and references from coaches and Sport Managers
•Commitment to school studies
•An exemplary record of school conduct
•Maintaining the above criteria throughout the year. Students will be re-evaluated at the
end of each term and their programme planned according to their individual needs
•At the end of each year the student is evaluated on the above criteria and
recommendations are made for the following year.
(It is important to note that sporting organisations’ potential level of attainment can
differentiate and will be considered.)
