PE & School Sport

Additional Government Funding for Physical Education and Sport

Primary PE and Sport Premium is an initiative that aims to help increase and improve the PE and sporting opportunities for children. It was first provided in the 2013/14 academic year and the current government has pledged to continue this funding until 2020.

PE and Sport Premium funding is provided jointly by the Department for Education, the Department for Health and Culture and the Department for Media and Sport. It has been allocated to primary school headteachers and is ring-fenced, meaning that it can only be spent on the provision of PE and sport in schools

The Sports Premium allocated to Kilburn Park School for 2016-17 is £8,975

This funding will be targeted at the following improvements to Physical Education and School Sport:

• Provide a range of lunchtime and after-school sports activities.
• Improve the participation in inter-school competitive sports matches
• Develop priorities outlined in the 3 Year Sports Strategy.
• Employ a specialist Sports Coach for staff professional development and to provide curriculum lessons in games and gymnastics
