P.E. and Sport Premium
In March 2013, the Government announced that all primary schools would be provided with funding of £150 million per annum for academic year 2013 to 2014 and 2014 to 2015 to improve provision of physical education and sport in primary schools in England - The Primary PE and Sport Premium.

For the academic year 2020 to 2021 the Department for Education confirmed the funding would continue at £320 million which has continue for academic year 2021 to 2022 and 2022 to 2023.
The funding is to be used to provide, develop and deliver sustainable high quality teaching in school P.E. and sport. We are delighted to be in receipt of this funding as it supports our aim to create a culture that encourages the development of healthy, active lifestyles for ALL children by providing the foundations of positive and enjoyable participation in regular physical activity to be established.

Impact of Sport Premium Funding
- All children are able to be physically active and experience a range of sports within their PE lessons as a result of a planned out PE Curriculum to give children the opportunity to develop a breadth and depth of knowledge and skills.
- In 2021/2022, 85% of pupils attended extra curricular clubs which means they have the opportunity to progress in their chosen sport and/or experience a new sport. These sports offered cover individual participation as well as invasion team games which allow them to build character, collaboration and a sense of community.
- Break times and lunch times are increasingly active as a result of sports leader and MDSA training, (as well as the purchasing of the appropriate equipment), to support the children in initiating their own active play more readily which has a positive impact on both their fitness and their curriculum PE sessions.
- Pupils are able to recognise their own individual achievements and are able to develop their character, collaboration and sense of community through PE lessons, extra curricular activities, competitive events and events such as Sports Day. These achievement are often celebrated through means within the school such as displays, newsletters etc.
