ActionPlan

Beforeputting togetherthe generic action plan weconsidered how to maximize linking the plan and review into the framework that is being used to map the impact of Sport Premium funding on a National and Local level,the six themes we are following are

  1. Coaching – How the deployment of additional coaching is and can be used to complement existing provisions, where they can and are being used to maximize impact on whole school development and the monitoring the quality assurance in delivery.
  2. Competition - Developing opportunities for increased participation in competition, ensuring that Sport Premium funding is utilized to allow more students to assess opportunities as part of school games programme.
  3. Health and Physical Activity – Increasing the provision for the schools to use the funding on activities that are targeted at the least active or improving health and well being of the students.
  4. Sharing of PE Specialist Teachers – Utilizing the expertise of local PE Specialist to work as peripatetic specialists on bespoken areas of need and development within the schools.
  5. Professional Learning –Provide opportunities for Classroom Teachers, Support Staff, Head Teachers, Subject Coordinators and other personnel involved within the provision of PE and School Sport within the school to access CPD and training.
  6. Other – Work with the school on a bespoken basis assistance to identify additional areas where the Sport Premium Funding can be invested to develop PE and School Sport

These six themes form the basis in covering the three key areas that we believe the Sport Premium Funding should support the lower School; these four key areas are Physical Education, Healthy and Active Lifestyles and Competitive School Sport
