Sports Premium
The Sports and PE Premium for schools started in 2013. Schools receive an allocation based on pupil numbers. Our annual allocation is £9,250.
In 2015-19 we allocated this funding to
- the development of a multi use games area in the playground. This increased the number of P.E. lesson opportunities and clubs at lunchtime and after school.
- employing a coach to faciltate football in the school gym at lunchtimes. This allowed for directed time for Years 1 -6
- all school staff received training on pitch and progression in P.E.
- taking part in the Maccabi Jewish Inter School Programme, which charged for each tournament
- marking sports pitches on the newly surfaced playground
In 2020-21 we allocated this funding to
- increase the skills of teachers and support staff by working alongside sports coaches and providing cover for them to attend sports training courses.
- enable all our Y4 children to take part in swimming lessons
- staffing a range of lunch time and after school sporting clubs
- increase the sporting clubs on offer during enrichment to include; gymnastics, dance, multi sports, tennis, hockey, football cricket and music and movement.
- purchase playground gym equipment
- run a newly designed sports day, with an element of competition, on a field
- employ a football/ netball coach to train our teams
- taking part in the Maccabi Jewish Inter School Programme, which charges for each tournament. This fund has meant we do not need to pass this cost onto pupils.
