Sports Premium
The Primary PE and Sport Premium is funding provided directly by the Department for Education to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of physical education, physical activity, and sport offered in primary schools.
Schools must use the funding to build capacity and capability within the school to ensure that improvements will benefit pupils joining the school in future years. Spending is planned and evaluated across five key indicators set by the Department for Education:
-
Staff CPD: Increasing the confidence, knowledge, and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport.
-
Broader Provision: Offering a broader experience of a range of sports and physical activities to encourage healthy, active lifestyles.
-
School Profile: Raising the profile of PE and sport across the school as a tool for whole-school improvement.
-
Targeted Engagement: Increasing pupil participation in regular physical activity and targeted sports clubs (particularly for less active pupils).
-
Competitive Sport: Increasing participation in competitive sports and local School Games events.
In line with DfE conditions of grant, our school publishes an annual expenditure and impact report detailing how our funding allocation has been spent and the sustained impact on our pupils.
