Use of Primary Sports and PE Funding During the Academic Year 2023-24
There are five key indicators that schools are working towards for the use of the Primary Sports and PE Grant. These are:
- 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.
At St Luke’s this year we are using the Primary Sports and PE Funding to address the above areas. We have identified the use of the money to:
A. To develop further and improve opportunities for and quality of engagement in physical exercise throughout the school day. (Key Indicators 1, 2 and 4) = £1200 B. To improve the quality of teaching of PE (including a focus on team games) through training and support from specialist coaches (Key Indicators 1, 2 and 3) = £4300 C. Develop health lifestyles of all children and have further increased input for a core group of children who require further support (Key Indicators 1 and 2) = £800 D. Develop resources to meet the specific needs of the children, ensuring the children have the best equipment available to support them in PE lessons, break times and lunch times (Key Indicators 1 and 4) = £9530 E. To improve the range of physical activities at lunchtimes (Key Indicator 3) =£600 F. To enable children to access competitive games and activities within school and, if available, attend regional SEND events (Key Indicator 5) = £700
