Pupil Premium and PE Premium
The Pupil Premium is a per pupil payment, additional to school funding, which is intended to address underlying socioeconomic inequalities between pupils. The Premium was introduced in April 2011 and paid to children eligible for free school meals (FSM) in that year. A Pupil Premium Plus is also provided for children adopted from the care system.

Government guidance on spending the PE and Sport Premium for Primary Schools:

Schools must spend the funding to improve the quality of the PE and sport activities they offer their pupils, by improving the following:

Engaging all pupils in regular physical activity;
Increasing the profile of sport across the school;
Increasing confidence, knowledge and skills of staff in teaching PE;
Offering a broader experience of a range of sports;
Increasing participation in competitive sport.

Some of the given examples of how to use the funding are as follows:

Providing targeted activities to encourage the least active children;
Hiring specialist sports coaches;
Introducing new sports and physical activities;
Enter or run more sport competitions;
Increase pupils’ participation in the School Games;
Encourage children to take on leadership roles that support physical activity.

IMPACT OF EXPENDITURE:

Continued increase and wider participation across the children throughout the school; tournament success; ability to enter almost all Borough competitions, always taking as many teams/children as the tournaments permit, plus lots of friendlies; very high proportion of children in KS2 representing the school in at least one sport in either a competition or “friendly” match. Every child in KS2 has participated to the extent possible in both House tournaments and an intra-school football tournament.

We have entered nearly all relevant competitions, with a very high proportion of children in Years 5&6 having represented the school in at least one School Games Competition.

All children have the opportunity to compete at the level that is most appropriate for them, whether through intra-school house competitions, friendly matches or Borough events.

By ensuring continual communication with various schools in the area and by having a dedicated co-ordinator to organise participation, these developments are sustainable.

SWIMMING:

All children in Year 3 take part in an intensive swimming course offered by the Janet Adegoke swimming pool with the aim of ensuring that all can swim at least 25 metres.
