What is PE and Sport Premium?

The Primary PE and Sport Premium is used to improve the provision of physical education and school sport in primary schools. The Government has provided schools with a PE and Sports Grant, aimed at improving provision of PE and Sport, so that all pupils develop healthy lifestyles.

The documents on this page provide more details on how sports premium impacts on our provision across the school.

 The grant received by the school is being used to:

• further develop teaching and learning in PE through developing staff expertise
• improve resources to support the development of the subject
• increase pupils' participation in sports and physical activities
• increase opportunities for pupils to take part in a range of competitive sports
• provide the opportunity for pupils to try new sports
• provide a wide variety of after school clubs
• Equipment (e.g. balance bikes)
• Transport to events/competitions

 At Westgate CP School, we are committed to spending the PE and Sport Premium funding in a sustainable way that will positively impact on the health and well-being of our pupils. It is also our aim to develop sporting opportunities available, as well as increase participation and attainment levels within PE lessons and extracurricular sports clubs across our school. In turn, we are committed to continually evaluating and developing the quality of our PE provision.
