St. Mary’s receives extra funding specifically for improving the provision of physical education (PE) and sport in our school. This funding has been allocated by HM Government since September 2013 as a legacy to the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
It was announced that HM Government would continue the funding of the PE and sport premium throughout 2023-24 and 2024-25.
At St. Mary’s we are using our PE and sport premium to improve the quality of PE and sport provision in the following ways:
To view how we have used the PE and sport premium funding during the academic year 2024-25 please see below:
The PE and sport premium must be used to fund additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport, for the benefit of primary-aged pupils to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles.
The funding for 2024-25 consists of a £16,000 lump sum plus £10 per pupil per academic year. Allocations for the academic year 2024-25 are calculated using the number of pupils in years 1 to 6 as recorded in the October 24 census.
If you would like paper copies of any information, policy or document found on our website please contact the school office and a member of staff will be happy to arrange this for you free of charge.
