Schoolsworks

Whytemead Primary School

Sports Premium

In addition to standard funding for all pupils, the school receive some additional funds from the Department for Education to meet specific strategic objectives set by the government.

Part of the school’s budget is ring-fenced for spending on sport in school. Each year we publish a report of our plans for using this money, and its impact. 

This is intended to work towards the government’s 5 key targets of:

  • the engagement of all pupils in at least 30 minutes of in-school activity each day (to supplement 30 minutes of activity outside of school)
  • raising the profile of sport and PE across the school
  • increasing confidence, knowledge and skills of teachers when teaching PE
  • offering a broader range of sporting activities to pupils
  • increasing participation in competitive sport

The Sports Premium Strategy sets out our plans for using the sports premium and is reviewed each year.
