EtchinghamPrimary Sports Premium
The Primary Sports Premium Funding is given to Primary Schools to get more people playing sport safely from a young age, and help them keep playing sport throughout their life, no matter what their economic or social background.
Schools can choose how they use the funding, for example to:
- hire specialist PE teachers or qualified sports coaches to work with primary teachers during PE lessons
- support and involve the least active children by running after-school sports clubs and holiday clubs, e.g. the Change4Life clubs
- provide resources and training courses in PE and sport for teachers
- run sport competitions or increase pupils’ participation in the School Games
- run sports activities with other schools
- ensure that pupils can swim confidently
Sustainability
The Government has currently committed to retaining the Primary Sports Premium and using the "Sugar Tax" from 2017-18 to double the amount of funding for it. If funding should end at a future date, we have ensured that our provision is sustainable by:
- Using Professional Sports Coaches to train and upskill School Staff;
- Investing in the latest Schemes of Work and Lesson Planning in line with the current curriculum;
- Investing in quality equipment and budgeting for on-going renewal;
- Establishing a strong local sports partnership to facilitate inter-school and specialist competitions;
- Establishing relationships with a local Independent School, who give us use of their specialist sports facilities.
