How has your school's spending improved PE attainment? |

enabled pupils to build on prior learning year-on-year, resulting in improved
skill development and confidence across a range of physical activities. · Targeted
CPD for staff has led to higher-quality PE lessons, with a greater focus on
skill progression, assessment, and inclusion. This has supported pupils in
accessing PE at an appropriate level and improving their individual
attainment. · Enhanced
resources aligned to curriculum needs have enabled more effective teaching
and practice of key skills, particularly in games and athletics. |
How has your
school's spending increased school
sport participation? |
· Funding
has supported the creation and continuation of a calendar of inter-school
competitions and festivals, which has increased opportunities for pupils to
represent the school in a range of sports. · A
pupil participation tracker is now embedded, allowing staff to monitor
involvement and actively target those who have not yet taken part in
competitive or non-competitive sport. This year 48% of children have
participated in events and 62% of disadvantaged pupils have participated in
events. · Transport

including those less likely to participate in traditional sports, with a
clear emphasis on inclusivity. · Pupil
voice has been used to help shape the extra-curricular offer, resulting in
improved engagement and ownership from children. · Some
clubs have been offered free of charge or heavily subsidised
to ensure that cost is not a barrier to participation for any family. · 40%
of children have attended a before or after school sport club. |
Section 6 of
9 –
sustainability
Achieving sustainable outcomes is key to any spending of the PE and sport premium grant. The conditions of grant and guidance describe how the grant must be used. This includes:
·
build capacity and capability within
the school and ensure that improvements to the quality of PE, sport and physical activity
provision made now are sustainable and will benefit
pupils joining the school in future years
Question |
Answer |
How is your school going to ensure that the improvements made
through its spending of the PE and sport
premium are sustainable? |
·
Staff confidence
and competence in delivering high-quality PE lessons—particularly in
games—has significantly increased. This development supports long-term
sustainability by enhancing staff expertise and creating more inclusive and
engaging lessons for all pupils. ·
The PE subject
leader has carried out lesson observations and provided personalised
feedback to individual teachers, ensuring continuous professional development
and the embedding of effective teaching strategies. ·
A comprehensive
scheme of work for games has been fully embedded across the school,
establishing a clear progression of skills from Reception to Year 6. ·
A calendar of
inter-school competitions and festivals has been established and will be
continued annually, promoting competitive sport and community engagement. ·
A participation
tracking system has been created and will be updated year on year. This
ensures that all pupils are given equitable opportunities to take part in
school sports events, with a particular focus on inclusion and increasing
participation among less-active children. ·
A daily sensory
circuit and access to a sensory corridor have been embedded into the
timetable to support children with regulation and sensory needs. These
initiatives contribute to the school’s broader commitment to physical and
emotional well-being. ·
PE equipment and
resources have been audited, upgraded, and aligned with curriculum needs.
These are now routinely maintained to ensure they support the delivery of
quality PE lessons over time. ·
Annual review of PE provision and
impact using pupil voice, teacher feedback, and participation data to inform
next steps. This will also lead to continued investment in staff training to
maintain and build on current skills, including new staff induction in PE
expectations and pedagogy. |
Section 7 of 9 – swimming
As part of the National Curriculum schools must provide swimming and water safety lessons either in key stage 1 or key stage 2. National curriculum requirements are pupils should be taught to:
·
swim
competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance
of at least 25 metres
·
use
a range of strokes effectively (for example, front
crawl, backstroke and
breaststroke)
·
perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations
Within this form, we ask that schools provide data on the percentage of pupils within its year 6 cohort in the current academic year who met the national curriculum swimming and water safety requirements. Schools should provide attainment data for year 6 pupils from their most recent swimming lessons. This may be data from previous years, depending on the swimming and water safety programme at the school. Schools must keep attainment data from swimming and water safety lessons in years 3 to 5 to be able to report this accurately in year 6.
