Penns Primary School Sports Premium Funding Statement

What is the Sports Premium?

The government is providing funding to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding is jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport and will be allocated to head teachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.

This money is only to be spent on sport and PE provision within the school. This money will be used so that all children will benefit regardless of their sporting ability.

Purpose of the funding

Schools are free to determine how best to use the funding they receive to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision. At Penns Primary we recognise the contribution of PE to the health and well-being of the children. Penns Primary also recognise the importance of continued professional development of staff to enable them to deliver high-quality Physical Education.
