Believe in more – Enrichment. Passion. Development

Please read the information below which gives details of our PE and Sport Premium Grant and how we allocate the funding.

Schools are required to publish details of how our PE and Sport Premium funding is invested.

What is the Primary PE and Sport Premium?

The Government provides funding to improve provision of physical education and sport in primary schools. This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and Sport in school.

How will we invest this at Allerton CE Primary School?
At Allerton CE Primary, we have sought to develop PE and Sports over time, having employed a specialist PE coach prior to the PE and Sports Premium grant.

In 2021-22 our partnership began with the Bradford Park Avenue, working with PE specialists every day of the week.

We employ a specialist coach every day, who delivers some of our PE lessons across school, lunchtime sports and after school PE sessions. Alongside that coach, we have a PE teacher who works across school for 2 days and a further full time employed coach who works at lunchtimes, playtimes and targeted work with key groups, alongside delivering the PE curriculum on afternoons.

In total we spend over and above the Government PE and Sports Premium funding each year.

This has enabled up to build capacity and maximise the long term impact of our PE provision for pupils and staff.

We have seen an increase in individual in school engagement, participation and delighted to see this convert to competition success. Post Covid lockdowns, we are seeing this increase and are pleased to be able to offer such a range of active engagement opportunities to our pupils

Swimming

Our offer for learning to swim is truly tailored to the individual pupil, with pupils being taught in small groups. Qualified swimming teachers are in the pool, with small groups of ability grouped pupils. Progress and feedback is always amazing.

Swimming is intensively taught in blocks, as weekly sessions did not show enough progress for our pupils. Current lessons are for Year 3.

These are delivered by our long term partners, Just Swim, and lessons take place at The Grammar School at Leeds. Both have worked with us for a number of years and we enjoy a strong partnership.

In 2018-19 we achieved the School Games Mark Gold Award
