Sports Premium Report
Background to the Primary PE and Sport Premium Funding
The PE and Sport Premium Funding is given to Primary Schools to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and School Sport and to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles for the benefit of all pupils. Schools receive their funding each financial year (April – March) and this is spent accordingly each term.
Provision at St Anne's
Participation in Physical Education has significant benefits for children. Research shows that high quality PE and sport also has an impact in improving educational standards. As well as helping children become more active and healthy, it also helps to develop children’s self-esteem, confidence and helps to increase social and team-working skills. At our school we are committed to delivering high quality PE each week for every pupil by:
ensuring all pupils are included
timetabling space fairly
deploying and developing staff (including sports coaches) effectively
delivering carefully planned progressive lessons which build on pupils’ prior knowledge and skills.
providing opportunities for challenge and competition.
monitoring and evaluating pupils’ progress and outcomes.
rewarding and celebrating pupils’ achievements.
At St Anne's, the use of the PE and Sports Premium Funding will be used to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the following areas:
further improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision across the school
increase pupil participation in PE and sport and introduce children to a wide variety of sports e.g. fencing, basketball, handball, athletics, swimming
encourage all pupils to enjoy sport, develop healthy lifestyles and reach their true potential
inspire pupils to participate in competitive sport
work in partnership with external providers such as Oldham Athletic Community Trust, other schools and sports clubs
further increase staff confidence to deliver high quality PE lessons through professional development
