PE and Sports Premium 

The government gives money to schools (called the PE and Sport Premium) to improve sport and PE, so young people have the opportunity to lead healthy and active lifestyles. A positive experience of sport and physical activity at a young age can build a lifetime habit of participation.

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

​This means that schools should use the premium to:

• ​Develop or add to the PE, physical activity and sport that the school provides
• Build capacity and capability within the school to ensure that improvements made now will benefit pupils joining the school in future years

Schools should use the premium to secure improvements in the following five key indicators.

1. ​Engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity
2. Profile of PE and sport is raised across the school as a tool for whole-school improvement
3. Increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
4. Broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
5. Increased participation in competitive sport

​Schools must produce a report each year to explain how they have spent the funding. These are below. 

Pupil Premium 

The Pupil Premium Grant is government funding which aims to support vulnerable pupils in making good progress and succeeding alongside their peers. Pupil Premium funding is determined by:

• The number of children who are registered for Free School Meals (different to universal free school meals). This includes children of families who have received these benefits anytime within the last 6 years.
• The number of children who are classed as ‘Looked after Children’
• The number of children with parents in the Armed Forces

How we spend the money

The funding that is received by the school annually is used in a variety of ways in order to improve pupil attainment and help overcome any barriers to learning. The funding is used to:

• ​Invest in training to continually improve the quality of teaching at the school
• Pay for support staff to cater for children’s educational and social / emotional needs
• Fund initiatives and one-to-one support for individual children run by Teaching Assistants 
• Widen children’s experiences by paying for music lessons and enrichment activities
• Paying for some uniform and equipment and supporting with payment for school trips

​​A full breakdown of how our funding is used can be seen in our Pupil Premium Strategy Reports.These are below. 

Eligibility

If you think your child may be eligible for the pupil premium grant please do speak to us. We really can use the funding to support your child in school. If you are in receipt of Income Support or Income-Based (not Contribution-Based) Job Seeker’s Allowance; Income-Related Employment & Support Allowance (not Contribution-Based); or receive Child Tax Credit and have an annual taxable income, as assessed by Inland Revenue, that does not exceed £16,190, you are entitled to apply for Free School Meals. Families who also claim Working Tax Credit are NOT eligible to claim free school meals regardless of income. If your child does not wish to have school dinners, please still apply for the grant as you will be entitled to help with other school payments.
