Sports Funding

Introduction

At Greenwood, we recognise the contribution of PE to the health and wellbeing of the children. We believe that an innovative, varied PE curriculum and extra-curricular opportunities have a positive influence on the concentration, attitude and academic achievement of all our children. 

What is Sports Premium?

The PE and sport premium can help primary schools to achieve this commitment, providing primary schools with £320 million of government funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of the PE, physical activity and sport offered through their core budgets. It is allocated directly to schools, so they have the flexibility to use it in the way that works best for their pupils.

Aims

To ensure children have opportunities to: 

• Lead healthy lifestyles 
• Enjoy Physical Education and Sports in school
• Experience high quality Physical Education and Sport
• Compete against their peers
• Achieve sporting excellence

Our PE Curriculum

A wide range of PE is delivered to the children, which aims to engage and inspire all. Sports taught are wide and varied, both during the day, and as extra-curricular clubs. Opportunities include:

• Gymnastics
• Striking and Fielding Games
• Net/Wall Games 
• Invasion Games 
• Dance
• Athletics

In addition, the school is keen to provide a wide range of extra-curricular clubs for children throughout the year. The children enjoy the opportunity to work with coaches and have the chances to try new sports. We monitor participation and check uptake against gender, SEN, FSM.
