Please read the information below which gives details of our PE and Sport Premium Grant and how we allocate the funding.

The Government has committed to provide additional funding to improve and enhance the provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools . The funding is provided jointly by the Department for Education, Health, Culture, Media and Sport.

How we use our sports premium funding?

We received £18,320 in sports premium funding. 

Our overall aim for 2024-5 was to increase the general fitness of each child and to ensure that all children participate in some form of activity outside their PE lessons. We use specialised coaches, alongside teachers and support staff, to deliver high-quality PE and Sport opportunities.

These are our objectives

• To improve access for all children to regular physical activity
• To ensure there are opportunities for intra-school and interschool sports competitions and tournaments
• To strengthen the range and skills of staff and pupils in sporting activities
• To plan for sustainable sports provision in school
• To celebrate achievement in sport

Please have a look at our action plan for the details of this plan.

Sports premium (government funding for P.E)

At Kingsway Junior School we have been using our premium sports funding to improve the quality of P.E and Sport within our school. 

Below are some of the ways we have invested the money:

• Teacher CPD
• Additional fitness sessions, in addition to PE lessons
• Free lunchtime clubs are delivered by our sports coaches. This has allowed children who may have missed out before, due to financial issues, to take part in sports clubs, taught by highly trained professionals.
• Play leader training for Years 5+6
• Competitions against other schools
• New P. E equipment and facilities within our playground to encourage children to be active during their break and lunchtimes.

- Lunchtime club - free
