Every school has a sports premium, an amount of money to spend on improving the provision and opportunities for children to engage with sports - please see the attached documentation to see how we have spent ours. At Lanlivery Primary we understand that for many children PE is the best part of their week! We use our PE sessions to offer children the opportunity to try different sports, such as street dance or yoga for example. They are taught about keeping healthy and making healthy choices as well as how to participate and push yourself so that every child, regardless of their ability, is able to enjoy and make the most out of PE sessions.
The government currently provides additional funding of £150 million per annum to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. There are 5 key indicators that schools should expect to see improvement across:
The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity - the Chief Medical Officer guidelines recommend that all children and young people aged 5 to 18 engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, of which 30 minutes should be in school.
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.
For the year 2019-20 our Sport Premium funding is £16,490 and has been allocated to the following:
Weekly sports coaches to support in the delivery of a broad and balanced PE curriculum and to provide CPD for all staff
CPD and support for staff in delivering swimming teaching to support all pupils in achieving the minimum standard
Courses and training for staff in Netball, wellbeing and yoga
Equipment and resources to introduce new activities and sport for pupils in lessons and free time.
Supply for staff to attend competitions and sporting events with groups and teams
Release time for PE lead to observe and coach staff
Opportunities for all staff to develop understanding and skills for outdoor learning
