The Blyth & Bedlington School Sport Partnership is a phase 9 partnership situated in the SE corner of Northumberland and came into operation in September 2005.
The education system in Northumberland is going through a period of change from a 3 tier structure of First Schools, Middle Schools and High Schools to a 2 tier structure of Primary Schools and Secondary Schools. The County wide process will take many years, leaving the Sports partnership operating within a 3 tier system in Bedlington and a 2 tier system in Blyth from September 2010.
At the present time the Partnership is staffed by a Partnership Development Manager, an Assistant Partnership Development Manager and 13 SSCo's.update
