Sport Premium
Following the massive success of London 2012 the goverment in conjunction with various charities have implemented a program to hopefully increase participation in Sports; develop pupils abilities within sport and improve their health and well being.
Below is a statement to try and explain what the aims are of the funding.
Implementing the “Sports Premium” in our School.
The Government has given every Primary School funding to develop Physical education and competitive sport.
In our school we are using this funding by working with the Pennine Sports Partnership to:
- Increase the amount of competition sport in which our children participate.
- Make links to other community sports providers.
- Develop additional clubs and activities for children, outside the curriculum.
- Encourage our children to improve their leadership skills through sport.
- Give extra support in PE to our most talented children and include those with special needs in sport.
Lastly, we are bringing PE and sports specialist teachers and coaches into work alongside class teachers in lessons.
In this way, our children will gain new skills and experiences and teachers will learn new techniques and knowledge to aid them in teaching sport and PE.
The long term aim is higher quality lessons and improved learning for all children.
Please follow the link below to see how we have been spending the money this year to acheive all of the goals set out by the funding, we hope that as this funding continues into the future we can continue to make lasting legacies, which will benefit this generation and those in the future.
