The pupil premium grant  provides funding to raise the attainment of our disadvantaged pupils of all abilities to reach their potential.

Sports Premium

In common with all primary schools nationally, we receive a sum of money (this has been increased to £16,000 plus £10 for each pupil in 2021-22) as Sports Premium.  Our school received £19,850 this year.

This money must be used to:

• make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport activities that our school already offers;
• build capacity and capability within the school to ensure that improvements made now will benefit pupils joining our school in future years.

We use our funding to:

• hire qualified sports coaches;
• provide 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 both internally and with other schools;
• increase pupils’ participation in the School Games;
• run sports activities with other schools.
