HO C

Why a District Plan?

A Scout District is an independent organisation that exists to provideadministration and support to the Scout Groups and Explorer Scout Unitswithin the District, subject to the policies and rules of The ScoutAssociation.

The process of establishing where the District is now helps the District lookat how well it provides its responsibilities of administration and support.

• Does the District have the structure to support and motivate all adults inthe District?

• How should the District respond to the results of Group’s planningefforts?

• How should the District respond to the Group plans with appropriatesupport?

• The District plan will be supported by others, and so will perpetuate theplanning momentum generated at the grass roots and form the basis forplans at higher levels i.e. County.

What does the District plan contain?

The District plan contains four sets of objectives and action plans thatrelate to:

• District effectivenessThose which help the District to discharge its functions

• Internal growthThose that support existing Groups in the development andimplementation of their strategic plan

• External growthThose to develop Scouting in those areas of the District that currently donot have Scout Groups

• County supportThose to be included in the County Plan.

Suggested methods

District effectivenessEstablish a baseline - (see health check) review results, set objectives andcreate plans for achieving them.

Internal growthThe basic aim of growing Scout Groups is to have each Section full ofMembers and every Group to have all Sections. The internal growth ofGroups depends on them meeting strategic areas as outlined in the GroupPlan - Where are we now. Where there is quality, quantity will follow.

The District must take care to avoid expending energy on activity which is



HO C

not aimed at the growth of Groups. Activity for activity sake at Districtlevel creates a false impression of effectiveness. There can be nodevelopment at District level independent of the development of Groups.Only if Groups grow will the District grow.

a Support to Groups that have a prepared plan.

The District is dealing here with Groups who know what they want andhave organised themselves to achieve it. The District must focus its priorityon these Groups for two reasons:

1 It is the logical response to the Groups' planning efforts

2 Investment in these Groups will produce better results for the sameamount of effort.

It is essential that the Group Plan identifies where District input is required.If the Group plan fails to do so, the District must negotiate how it cansupport the plan.

a Support to Groups who have not yet prepared a plan

These Groups are also part of the District! Districts need to providemotivation and support and insist these Groups produce a plan.

Some time needs to be invested in finding out why they have not done so.There are many possible obstacles to Groups developing a plan – thefollowing are quite common:

• Lack of time or motivation • They are content with the status quo and do not want to complicate

things for themselves• They are not aware of the Where Are We Now process, or only a few

Leaders are aware of it and have not communicated the information tothe rest

• They do not understand the document• They are not aware of the advantages of planning• They fear that the development plan will alter the Group’s usual style

and way of working• Fear of confronting genuine problems• Failure of previous attempts• They do not want to commit themselves to goals which allow them to

be precisely evaluated• They feel that making a plan is not something Scouts should do• They consider that their own Group is ‘special’ and that, in consequence,

initiatives designed for ‘normal’ Groups do not apply to them.

In order for the District to deal with the absence of a plan, the District mustknow what the reasons are and negotiate supporting the creation of a planand thus how the District can support the Group.

HO C

External growth

This is the development of Scouting in sectors of the District where thereare no Groups, or where there are insufficient. An external growth planshould be based on the District’s capacity – and so reflect its capabilities,strengthen its mission in society and ensure the survival of the Groups itcreates. Therefore attention needs to be given to targeting, priorities,availability of resources, timing, quick wins SMART objectives. Targetingrequires a detailed analysis of potential participation in Scouting needs tobe carried out in the following categories:

• Age groups• Gender• Geographical sectors• Socio-economic levels• Participation of minorities.

County support – Meet and discuss the support that is required from County.
