includes performance test day and performance portfolio.
The fitness assessments are detailed below:

Individual Performance Portfolio which details results,
scores and a sport specific comments.
Scores are given on a scale of 1-5 (1 = low, 5 =
excellent) based on HPU Generic Test Day age group and
gender results.

A typical G&T day includes tests which asses speed,
agility, balance, flexibility and strength
I have been extremely pleased with the services
provided by the HPU at Essex University in supporting
our gifted and talented programme. The testing day is
extremely well organised and the feedback provided is
particularly useful for pupils to see what their current
athletic strengths and weaknesses are
