Sports Premium 2022-2023

The government is providing additional funding to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding has been provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport. This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools. 

Our curriculum’s key principles are:

  • Pupil Led Learning 
  • Inspiring & Engaging 
  • Preparation for the Future 
  • Teamwork 

We believe that sports education should help nurture and equip children for the future. It should support pupils in developing values such as:

  • resilience
  • self-motivation
  • respect
  • responsibility
  • achieving their personal best

It should support pupils in developing skills such as:

  • Communication and presentation 
  • Social interaction 
  • Confidence and self-esteem 
  • Motivation and aspiration 
  • Leadership and teamwork 

Sport should be fun and fully inclusive regardless of sporting ability or SEND need. Aims The aim of the funding is to:

  • Increase participation rates in sport 
  • Provide competition school sports 
  • Ensure provision is inclusive, wide ranging and provides alternative sporting activities 
  • Ensure effective partnerships and links with other school and the local community 

The current range of provision includes:

  • Competitive Sport 
  • Provision of the recommended 2 hours of sport per week 
  • A wide range of after school sports clubs 
  • Skilled teachers delivering 1 hr of sports education plus daily exercise and after school clubs 
  • A wide range of sports taught through the curriculum, including team and individual events. 

Future provision will also include:

  • Strong links with local schools through Sports Festivals and Tournaments 
  • Opportunities for competition at individual and team level (school house competition) e.g. Cross Country Championships
  • Continue to provide inter sport competition with other schools. 
  • Continue to improve sporting facilities and resources 
  • Develop staff skills in monitoring and assessing pupil skills in PE
