The PE and Sport Premium impact 2016/2017
What is the PE and Sport Premium? / The PE and Sport Premium is an additional layer of funding received by schools. It is ring-fenced so can only be spent on improving the quality and breadth of PE and School Sport.How much does our school receive? / There is a grant of £8,000 plus £5 per child on roll. We receive this each academic year until 2020. The grant comes from 3 government departments:
- Education
- Health
- Culture, Media and Sport
How is the PE and Sport Premium money spent? / This year Nocton has bought into having a PE coach from JB Sports who has worked closely with the staff at the school in order to enhance their skills in teaching PE and to build their confidence in delivering sessions. The children have had the opportunities to experience a range of different sporting activities, such as orienteering, gymnastics, cricket, athletics and football. Through the range of sporting activities, all children have the opportunity to find their sport, and are able to use their newly acquired skills in intra-school competitions in their houses.
As well as using the money to pay for the Sports coach, a number of staff members have had the opportunity to attend training courses which has helped to build on their confidence in delivering skill progression PE lessons.
The children at Nocton also have the opportunity to participate in inter-school competitions at our local secondary school. Children can participate in swimming galas, football, netball, tag rugby, athletics, rounders and cricket.
What is the impact of Pupil Premium? / Each year we publish a report on our website. This tells our visitors how we have spent our grant and what the impact is. As a result of having a high quality PE coach, the uptake of extra-curricular activities has increased with 60% of KS2 children participating in a sporting activity. Similarly, 79% of KS1 children are attending the after school sports club for their age range.
How will the impact be sustained? / School staff receive support and training to embed some of the new ideas in to their own delivery. New relationships are being created with local schools so that we can continue to work together. Children are signposted to community opportunities so they can continue to pursue any new-found interests.
As from September 2017, Nocton have chosen to work with the outreach team at Carres Grammar School and with their support will continue to grow its PE. There will be opportunity to attend inter-school competitions and to also further develop the intra-schools competitions. JB sports will continue to provide high quality PE and help support staff in delivering PE.
How are the Governors involved? / The School Governors receive a report from the Headteacher which covers the above questions. Governors are invited to visitand monitor the impact of our premium.
