Use of school sports facilities after hours

Sport England have recently released guidance on using school facilites after hours:

Seeing school sports facilities locked up and out of bounds both after hours and during the holidays has always seemed to waste a valuable resource – particularly in areas where there is a lack of community sports facilities. Historically this has been an area fraught with issues relating to liability, upkeep and access. We hope that  Sport England’s new guidelines will help more schools, both in the public and private sectors,  to navigate this path ensuring these facilities can bring greater benefit to more people, while remaining sustainable
