Sports Premium
The PE and Sport Premium is additional funding provided by the Department for Education to help primary schools improve the quality of their physical education and sports provision. Schools must use this funding to support all children in leading healthy, active lives by increasing opportunities for participation in PE, sport and physical activity.
The funding is designed to make sustainable improvements, such as developing staff expertise, widening access to different sports, and encouraging all pupils to be active for at least 60 minutes each day. It cannot be used for core curriculum activities, but instead helps schools go beyond the minimum to enhance pupils’ physical health, wellbeing and personal development.
Schools are required to report how the funds are spent.
