Sport Premium
The Government has given every Primary School funding to develop Physical education and competitive sport.
In our school we are using this funding by working with the Pennine Sports Partnership to:
* Increase the amount of competition sport in which our children participate.
* Make links to other community sports providers.
* Develop additional clubs and activities for children, outside the curriculum.
* Encourage our children to improve their leadership skills through sport.
* Give extra support in PE to our most talented children and include those with special needs in sport.
Lastly, we are bringing PE and sports specialist teachers and coaches into work alongside class teachers in lessons.
In this way, our children will gain new skills and experiences and teachers will learn new techniques and knowledge to aid them in teaching sport and PE.
The long term aim is higher quality lessons and improved learning for all children.
Please see below the action plans showing how we are developing sport at Upperthong school,how we are allocating this aditional funding and the impact this is having on our children and staff.
