PE and Sports Premium
Information from the Department for Education website (www.gov.uk)
The Government allocates additional funding to improve the provision of Physical Education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding, provided jointly by the Department for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, will be allocated to primary schools. The funding is ring-fenced and can, therefore, only be spent on the provision of PE and sport in schools.
Most schools with pupils of primary age will receive the PE and sport premium funding in the academic year 2021 to 2022 including schools maintained by the local authority.
Schools receive PE and sport premium funding based on the number of pupils in Years 1 to 6.
Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer. This means they should use the premium to:
- develop or add to the PE and sport activities that your school already offers
- make improvements now that will benefit pupils joining the school in future years
For example, the funding can be used to:
- hire qualified sports coaches to work with teachers
- provide existing staff with training or resources to help them teach PE and sport more effectively
- introduce new sports or activities and encourage more pupils to take up sport
- support and involve the least active children by running or extending school sports clubs, holiday clubs and Change4Life clubs
- run sport competitions
- increase pupils’ participation in the School Games
- run sports activities with other schools
The funding cannot be used to:
- employ coaches or specialist teachers to cover planning preparation and assessment (PPA) arrangements; these should come out of the school’s core staffing budgets
- teach the minimum requirements of the national curriculum including those specified for swimming
