The government award a grant to every school each year to support children’s participation in PE and sport. The money spent is ring fenced and the school is held accountable for how they have used the funding and the impact that this has had on pupils participation and progress.

At Newlands Spring Primary and Nursery School we aim to use the funding to

• Engage all pupils in regular physical activity – kick-starting healthy active lifestyles.
• Raise the profile of PE and sport across the school.
• Increase the confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport.
• Broaden the sporting opportunities and experiences available to pupils.
• Increase the participation in competitive sport.
