Sports Premium

The Sports Premium is an annual funding initiative by the Government that aims to improve the quality of PE and sport for pupils in Years 1 to 6. 

It is important that schools make the most effective use of the premium. To best achieve this, spending should focus on making improvements in 5 key areas, to assist in:  

  • increasing confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sporting activities
  • increasing engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity and sporting activities
  • raising the profile of PE and sport across the school, to support whole school improvement
  • offer a broader and more equal experience of a range of sports and physical activities to all pupils
  • increasing participation in competitive sport
