Please read the information below which gives details of our PE and Sport Premium Grant, how we allocate the funding and the impact that this has had for the current year and for previous years.
Schools have to spend the sport funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they have the freedom to choose how they do this. We have allocated the funds in a way which is aimed to develop staff skills and children’s passion, enthusiasm and capability for physical activity encouraging the development of more healthy, active lifestyles. In this way, we are making a sustainable impact which will last beyond this academic year and that we can build upon in the future. For example, the Active Play resource will be available to use at every lunch, break and after school. By training staff in playground leaders or MSAs to lead lunch time active play we are ensuring the impact is sustainable.

There is a new condition requiring schools to publish how many pupils within their year 6 cohort are meeting the National Curriculum requirement to swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres, use a range of strokes effectively and perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations.
We do not have any data for 2019-20 as the whole school do swimming in the summer term and due to COVID 19 the swimming pool was closed.
Our Year 6 cohort for 2018/19:
Our Year 6 cohort for 2017/18:
We have used some of the PE and Sports Premium to provide additional provision for swimming in the summer term 2018 and 2019 for activity over and above the National Curriculum requirements. Pupils from Year 3 to Year 6 have taken their Bronze, Silver, Gold and Honours awards.
In 2019, as has been the case in all other years, all of our pupils from Reception to Year 6 took part in swimming lessons during the summer term.
Our data for 2016/17 was 75% of our Y6 pupils (15/20) met the National Curriculum requirement as a minimum.
