Sports Premium
The Government is providing funding of £150 million per annum for academic years 2013/14, 2014/15 and 2015/16 to provide new, substantial primary school sport funding. This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to primary school Headteachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.
The purpose of the funding is that schools will have to spend the sport funding in improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.
Funding Period
The sport funding was to be paid for the two academic years 2013/14 and 2014/15. The government have now extended this to 2019/20 also.
Accountability
Schools will be held to account for how they spend the sport funding. Ofsted has strengthened its coverage of sport and PE within the Inspectors' Handbook and supporting guidance, so that schools and inspectors know how sport and PE will be assessed in future as part of the school's overall provision offered.
The money received is being used in a number of different ways to support the provision of improved quality of sports and PE for all pupils. The spending of our sports premium is reported to the Resources governors every term and is analysed in the Head Teacher's report in the termly full governor meeting.

Where we are now
(Autumn term 2019)
Focus - to spend a portion of the Sports Premium money on improving school facilities to allow year long access to PE lessons and schemes designed to raise fitness levels and tackle childhood obesity. Also, to use the Sports Premium to raise teaching standards in school and therefore impact the children further in their attainment of the PE Key Skills
Intent |
Implementation |
Impact |
To ensure the teaching of PE in school is of a high standard and children make progress in regards their year group key skills |
Staff to identify areas of the curriculum they may need support in through use of an audit. Focussed curriculum support then delivered by Progressive Sports to ensure the up-skilling of teachers and the progress of the children in their class |
Costings - £5565 for 35 weeks of support across the year. Questionnaires to be completed by staff to assess their progress in understanding and monitoring of the children who have been involved to assess progress made. |
To ensure all children in school have access to modern, useful facilities that contribute to PE lessons and extra-curricular sport. |
Quotes to be obtained for a running track to ensure Marathon Kids can continue to be effective year round and also for a shelter which will allow games lessons to take place in adverse weather. |
Assessed when final quotes are obtained. Current quotes - £14,400 on running track and £5000 towards the shelter. Impact to be assessed through effectiveness and usage through the year – marathon kid’s results and the continuing of games through winter months. The running track will provide an excellent facility that can be used in all weathers and year round to allow Marathon Kids to take place – a fitness scheme aimed at raising fitness levels and targeting childhood obesity. This running track will also provide an excellent resource for Sports Day. The shelter will allow curriculum games lessons to take place during winter months when otherwise they may have been cancelled. Children should never miss PE lessons; they are of great importance to children’s physical development and activity levels. The shelter will allow games to take place in winter months and even provide shaded conditions for sports to take place during the summer. |
To ensure all children have access to relevant PE equipment to support the teaching in PE lessons and extra-curricular sport. |
PE equipment order to be carried out and then necessary equipment ordered. |
Costings to be added when equipment ordered.
Another audit to be carried out later in the year to assess whether the equipment is used and if it is helpful |
To ensure Health and Fitness is given importance within school |
Investgate the possibility of health and fitness programmes that would be useful for Christ Church children |
Impact assessed later in year |

These after-school clubs led to a greater amount of inter-school competition and greater success for Christ Church.
- Marathon kids – children increased their fitness levels as detailed from pre and post fitness tests. Children also completed, on average, 1km of exercise every day.
- Intra-school sports competition – children competed in their school houses in a range of different sports.
