What is the Sports Premium?
Since London 2012, the Government has provided ring-fenced, substantial primary school sport funding. This funding is jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and is sent directly to Head Teachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all children.
The sport funding can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools.
Purpose of funding
Schools have to spend the sports funding on improving provision of PE and sport, but they also have the freedom to choose how they do this.
Uses for the funding include:
How is the Sports Funding used at OLQOH?
The Governors agree that the money must be used so that all children benefit regardless of sporting ability; that the most able children are given the opportunity to compete in advanced tournaments; that staff have access to training opportunities and continued professional development; swimming is subsidised in order to support all families financially.
How is the impact of Sports Premium Funding Reported?
Our PE Leader (Rebekah Johnson) prepares and publishes a termly report for Governors. This keeps the FGB abreast of how money is being spent, as well as the impact of actions taken. These reports are also uploaded to our website, and can be found below.
