Fryent Primary School

The government is allocating funding for primary school sport. The money will go directly to primary schools to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all children. Each school will receive £16,000 plus an extra £10 per pupil each year. Schools must spend the sports funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but have the freedom to choose how they do this.

At Fryent we are strongly committed to PE and this is evident in the increasingly wide range of activities offered in and out of school, including being involved in competitive sports. We work with specialist providers to ensure we deliver a range of enrichment provisions. We recognise that PE plays an important role in the health and wellbeing of children and the positive impact PE and extra-curricular activities can have on the attitudes, confidence and academic achievement of all our children. We are using our PE and Sports Premium grant to:

• Appoint specialist sports coaches to provide a wide range of high-quality extra-curricular activities
• Develop teacher’s skills and knowledge in planning and delivering a broad and balanced PE curriculum
• Continue to develop the role of the Playground Squad in leading games, providing positive role models and helping to promote positive behaviour.
• Develop intra and inter-school competitive opportunities for sports.

All children have the opportunity to participate in a variety of PE activities within both the curriculum and in any of our after-school clubs.
