Mary Exton Primary School

Sports Premium

The PE and sport premium is a government-funding stream designed to help primary schools improve the quality of PE and sport activities they offer.  Schools receive PE and sport premium funding based on the number of pupils in years 1 to 6, or in cases where schools do not follow year groups (for example, in some special schools), the number of pupils aged 5 to 10.

Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer. There are 5 key indicators that schools should expect to see improvement across:

• The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity
• The profile of PE and sport is raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement
• Increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
• Broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
• Increased participation in competitive sport

Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of their physical education (PE), physical activity and sport.
