The Government is committed to improving physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools and allocates extra funding directly to schools.

Schools can choose how they use the funding, for example:

• By hiring specialist PE teachers or qualified sports coaches to work with teachers during PE lessons.
• To support and involve the least active children by running after-school sports clubs and holiday clubs.
• To provide resources and training courses in PE and sport for teachers.
• To run sport competitions or increase pupils’ participation in school games.
• To run sports activities with other schools.

Accountability

Schools are held accountable for the additional funding and are required to publish, on their websites, details of how they spent (or will spend) their PE and Sport Premium funding. They must also include detail about the impact this funding has on pupils’ PE and sport participation and attainment.

Primary PE and Sport Premium

At Boyne Hill, we believe in promoting a healthy lifestyle and recognise the benefits of developing our pupils' awareness and understanding of what is needed to keep them fit and healthy from a young age. We have worked with the local School Sports Partnership for many years and have made PE an integral part of our school curriculum. We have made important decisions about how best to spend this money to further enhance our pupils' experiences and opportunities, including learning about endurance and resilience and the beneficial impacts to social skill development and emotional health and wellbeing by taking part in sporting activities.

The report below sets out how we spent the money in the previous academic year and how we will make sure the improvements are sustainable. The Intentions Statement below sets out how we intend to spend the money in the current academic year.
