Sports Premium
The purpose of sports funding is to ‘fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and Sport, for the benefit of primary-aged pupils to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles’.
Key indicators of the effective use of sports funding are:
Key indicator 1: The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity – Chief Medical Officer guidelines recommend that primary school children undertake at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day in school;
Key indicator 2: The profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement;
Key indicator 3: Increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport;
Key indicator 4: Broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils;
Key indicator 5: Increased participation in competitive sport.
At Cherry Garden Primary School, we take child-centred approach to physical education and sport. We want every child to recognise the value of physical and mental health, fitness, and overall well-being as part of living a healthy, active life. We encourage children to take joy in communicating, collaborating, and competing — both with others and with themselves. Our aim is for pupils to develop and apply a wide range of fundamental movement skills across different sports and contexts, while building the confidence and self-belief to take physical risks and embrace new challenges in a safe, supportive environment
We aim to develop physically literate individuals who embark upon a healthy, active lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport through using our sports premium funding. effectively to address all of these key indicators.
Our PE and Sport leader is Miss Holland, and she would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
