What is Sports Premium?
The government is providing funding of £150 million per annum to provide Primary Schools with Sports Funding. The money will go directly to primary schools in order to improve sport and PE. This funding – provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport – will be allocated to primary school headteachers.
Schools must spend the additional funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.
Possible uses for the funding include:
• Providing new sports clubs which offer new challenges for all children
• Providing CPD opportunities for all members of staff in school
• Increasing participation in school games
• Providing resources for PE and Sport
• Involving all children in PE and Sport through inclusion support
• Introducing intervention groups for PE to support children working at different levels within the curriculum
We believe that developing children’s physical literacy gives them the tools for lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.
Children’s early experiences of sport are crucial to the development of high levels of expertise. Physical literacy is promoted and developed through a combination of school-based physical education, as well as other structured activity programs run out of school hours.
The Sports Premium funding has had a direct impact upon the Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural aspect of our Curriculum. Children are challenged in their PE lessons and develop confidence and self-esteem. We promote British Values by placing an emphasis on the need to work together as a team, regardless of ability. Additionally, this impacts pupils physical and mental health and wellbeing.
