PE and Sport Premium
What is it?
The PE and Sport Premium is a government funding initiative designed to improve the quality of PE and sport activities that schools offer to improve the health and fitness of pupils.
Schools receive PE and Sport Premium funding based on the number of pupils in Years 1 to 6.
Schools are encouraged to build on the work that they have already done using the premium to ensure that it builds the capacity and capability for all pupils and that what we do now continues to impact upon pupils in the future.
There are 5 key indicators that schools should expect to see improvement across:
1. the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity - the Chief Medical Officer guidelines recommend that all children and young people aged 5 to 18 engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, of which 30 minutes should be in school
2. the profile of PE and sport is raised across the school as a tool for whole-school improvement
3. increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and Sport
4. broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
5. increased participation in competitive sport
Our vision for PE and Sport
To offer children opportunities to:
- Acquire and develop skills in a range of physical activities and contexts;
- Become skilful and intelligent performers;
- Learn how to select and apply skills, tactics and compositional ideas to suit activities that need different approaches;
- Set targets for themselves and compete against each other individually and as teams;
- Understand what it takes to persevere, succeed and acknowledge other’s success whilst focusing on improving aspects of their own performance;
- Realise, understand and benefit from the physical effects of exercise on the body.
What are our main barriers to children's progress in PE and Sports?
- Children's engagement, resilience, confidence and fitness.
- Children’s participation in inter school and extra curricular competitions and activities.
- Children’s water confidence, swimming confidence and stamina.
- Children’s easy access to appropriate facilities and resources.
What are we spending our PE and Sports Premium on this year?
- Increased opportunities and access to a wider variety of experiences and extra curricular activities.
- Partnership with specialist sports coaches.
- Participation in inter school competitions and activities.
- Improving levels of activity at break time and lunchtime.
- Improving access to appropriate facilities and resources.
For as long as the school receives the PE and Sports Premium funding all of the above actions are sustainable through ongoing development and improvement in staff skills and confidence and through the increasing engagement and participation in daily physical activity, extra-curricular activities and inter school competitions and events.
