What is the PE and Sports Premium Funding?

The Government provides additional funding in order to improve the provision of Physical Education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to schools to be spent on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children. All state-maintained schools, academies, middle schools, special schools and pupil referral units which have primary aged pupils (as reported in the 2013 school census) will receive the funding.

At Newnham Infant and Nursery School, we believe PE & Sport plays an important role in making our vision statement a reality for every pupil, with the potential to change young people’s lives for the better.

We are committed to using this resource to be able to provide the highest quality of PE and Sport sessions for our children. Please see the below to see how we have allocated this funding.
