Policies

 
Information about the NWKA policies and procedures.
 

Standards

 
Standards are important to the North West Karate Academy; any sports club should have active policies and procedures, for example child protection.
 
Health and safety issues are massive in today’s world, keeping up to date is just as important as the teaching of Karate itself.
 

Status

 
The Academy has achieved Gold Award status through the St Helens Sports Council.
 
To achieve this status we had to present an extensive folder of our policies and procedures; including child protection, risk assessments and instructor roles etc, a full qualifying list can be viewed below
 

Dates

 
Bronze Award - May 2005
 
Silver Award - November 2005
 
Gold Award - January 2006
 
This award is also recognised by Sport England Club Mark, however we must wait for the English Karate Federation ( EKF ) to be recognised by Sport England. This is due to the fact that not every Karate Club and Karate Association in England is a member of this Organisation, unfortunately this means we are in limbo for this award.
