PE and Sport Premium

 

Sports Premium 2023/2024

 

 

Sports Premium Money

 

Sports Premium allocations for the academic year 2023 and 2024 are calculated using the number of pupils in years 1 to 6, as recorded in the January 2023 census, as follows:

  • Schools with 17 or more pupils receive £16,000 plus £10 per pupil
  • Schools with 16 or fewer pupils receive £1000 per pupil

 

Purpose of the Funding

 

The premium must be used to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport, for the benefit of primary-aged pupils, in the 2022-2023 academic year, to encourage the development of healthy active lifestyles. Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer.

This means that the premium should be used to:

  • build capacity and capability in the school and make sure that improvements made to the quality of PE, sport and physical activity provision now are sustainable and will benefit pupils joining the school in future
  • develop or add to the PE, sport and physical activity that the school provides

 

For example, the funding can be used to:

  • provide continued professional development (CPD) of teachers to make sure that the future quality of the teaching of PE, sport and physical activity is sustainable.  This includes providing staff with:
  • Professional development
  • Mentoring
  • Appropriate training
  • Access to external resources
  • embed physical activity into the school day by encouraging active travel to and from school and having active break times
  • provide targeted activities or support to the least active children
  • help to provide a range of sports and physical activities that the school offers
  • raise the attainment in primary school swimming and water safety by funding top-up swimming sessions for those pupils that do not meet the national curriculum requirements after they have completed core swimming lessons.

This academic year (2023/2024) Galton Valley Primary School will receive £19,050. We intend to spend this money on the following:
