Sport Premium – 2015-16 spending

  1. In April 2013, the Government announced new funding of £150 million for physical education (PE) and sport. This funding should be used to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision.
  2. Funding will be allocated to all maintained and state-funded schools with primary phase pupils, including: primary, middle, special and non-maintained special schools, academies and pupil referral units from 1 September 2013. A typical primary school will receive about £9,250 annually in the academic years 2013/14 and 2014/15.
  3. Schools are free to determine how best to use this funding to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision, including increasing participation in PE and sport so that all pupils develop healthy lifestyles and reach the performance levels they are capable of.

(Ofsted Inspecting primary school PE and school sport: new funding September 2013)

We received about £8000 for this academic year and used this towards Sports coaching on 3 afternoons a week, and an after school club. This paid for Damian Sweeney on 3 afternoons a week and partly towards some climbing activities at Grip and Go. The actual amount spent on the coaching and Grip and Go was around £12,000 for the financial year 2015-16 (this also included some staff training for support staff)

The funding for 2016-17 academic year has remained in place for Primary schools and will amount to approx. £8000. From September 2016 we will use the Sports premium funding for sports coaching three afternoons a week with some of the remaining funding used to pay towards Grip and Go climbing, roller-skating and dry ski slope sessions. We anticipate it will cost school an additional £5000 to make the total cost approximately £13,000 for the coming financial year.
