PE and Sport Premium 2022-2023
1. What is the Sports Premium?
The government provides funding to provide new and substantial primary school sport. The funding is provided by the Department for Education and will see money going directly into primary schools to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.
In academic year 2021/22 Tanworth-In-Arden received £17,760. It is estimated that we will receive approximately the same in 22/23 This money can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools.
2. Purpose of the funding
All schools have to spend the sport funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but there is freedom to choose how to do it. We recognise the contribution of PE to the health and well-being of our children. We also believe that an innovative and varied PE curriculum supplemented with high quality extra-curricular opportunities have a positive influence on the concentration, attitude and academic achievement of all children.
3. How we plan to use the money?
The money will be used so that all children benefit regardless of their sporting ability. We will continue to place a high priority on our PE provision and, as such, will continue to invest in additional staffing and resources to further enhance the PE curriculum as well as extra-curricular sports and after schools clubs.
