WREN ACADEMY FINCHLEY PE AND SPORT PREMIUM 2023-2024
REVIEW DATE: AUTUMN 2024
Introduction
The Department for Education’s (DfE) vision for the Primary PE and Sport Premium is that all pupils leaving primary school are physically literate and have the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy, active lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.
Objectives
The PE and sport premium funding has been provided by the DfE to ensure impact against the following objective and indicators:
- To achieve self-sustaining improvement in the quality of PE and sport in primary schools.
- The engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity – kick-starting healthy active lifestyles
- The profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement
- Increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
- Broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
- Increased participation in competitive sport
It is important to emphasise that the focus of spending must be sustainable and leave a lasting legacy beyond the funding allocation.
