Sports Premium

‘Sports premium funding has been used successfully to develop the pupils’ sports leadership programme, to improve the quality of the teaching of physical education for staff who are not specialist teachers, to develop extra-curricular activities and to provide specialist sports equipment.’

(Ofsted, February 2019)

How schools can use the PE and Sport Premium

Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer.

This means that schools should use the premium to:

develop or add to the PE and sport activities that your school already offers
make improvements now that will benefit pupils joining the school in future years

For example, schools can use your funding to:

hire qualified sports coaches to work with teachers
provide existing staff with training or resources to help them teach PE and sport more effectively
introduce new sports or activities and encourage more pupils to take up sport
support and involve the least active children by running or extending school sports clubs, holiday clubs and Change4Life clubs
run sport competitions
increase pupils’ participation in the School Games
run sports activities with other schools
