Sports Premium
The government is providing an extra £150 million of annual funding for the academic years of 2014 to 2015, and 2015 to 2016. The aim of this funding is to improve the Physical Education (PE) and Sports programs offered by primary schools, and is provided jointly by various governmental departments, including Education, Health and Culture, and Media and Sport. Although the funding will be allocated to primary school head teachers, it will be ‘ring fenced’ – this means it can only be spent specifically on PE and sport in schools.
How will it be spent?
At Eastfield we are passionate about physical education and sport. We will ensure the sports funding is used to improve the provision of PE and sport through enhancing the quality of teaching. In addition we aim to provide the children at Eastfield Primary with outstanding sports opportunities through increased participation and partnership links.
See the table below to see how the funding will be spent.
