Physical Education Grant

The Government is providing additional funding to improve the provision of Physical Education and sport in Primary Schools. This money is allocated to Primary Schools to choose how they spend the money. The funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on improving Physical Education and sport in schools.

Schools receive PE and Sport Premium Funding based on the number of pupils in years 1 to 6. The number of pupils at a school who attract the funding is determined using data from the January school census.

Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer.

This means that schools should use the premium to:

• develop or add to the PE and sport activities that the school already offers
• make improvements now that will benefit pupils joining the school in future years

For example, funding may be used to:

• hire qualified sports coaches to work with teachers
• provide existing staff with training or resources to help them teach PE and sport more effectively
• introduce new sports or activities and encourage more pupils to take up sport
• support and involve the least active children by running or extending school sports clubs, holiday clubs and Change4Life clubs
• run sport competitions
• increase pupils’ participation in the School Games 
• run sports activities with other schools
