PE and sport premium for primary schools - GOV.UK

Background Information

Physical Education and School sports is an area where all pupils can enjoy and achieve, building a platform for life long physical activity in an environment where all our pupils can succeed and thrive.

Our school receives a Sports Premium Grant.  We will ensure targeted and strategic use of the Primary School Sport Premium Funding to support us in achieving and sustaining our vision for Physical Education and the vision of the school.

Principles 
The purpose of this funding is to ensure improvement in the quality of sport and PE provision for all children. (Department for Education, March 2013).

We will ensure that our school's Physical Education provision addresses the needs of all of pupils, including those who belong to disadvantaged, vulnerable and gifted groups. We will ensure that the vision gives opportunities for all children regardless of gender, age, ability or ethnic background.

Key Goals

• To increase pupil participation in extended school sports activities.

• To ensure more pupils are being physically active.

• To continually improve the quality of teaching and learning across the school.

• To raise children’s self-belief and self-worth through celebrating success for all.

Our Primary School Sports funding has been allocated following a whole school review and as part of the School Improvement Plan.  Looking at needs analysis we have identify priority classes, groups and individuals. In order to address any (identified) areas of need, this funding may be used across particular classes, key stages and for whole school use.
