P.E and Sport Premium Update - Autumn 2019
We have started this academic year in a successful manner. There have been impressive wins for the football teams and the netball team remains unbeaten with the most recent match being a hard fought 8-7 victory against Holt Farm.
Children from KS1 participated in a multi-skills festival at the Deanes school and we took over 40 junior children to the recent cross country festival at Alleyn Court and against strong opposition we managed to achieve medals in 4 of the 8 races. (3 silvers and 1 gold)

Our sports coach is now working alongside teachers throughout the school to team teach and upskill their knowledge and the children are clearly enjoying the lessons.
We have undertaken a baseline assessment of which clubs the children are participating in and this has enabled us to identify pupils who are not participating and offer them opportunities to get involved at lunchtime.
We have offered a record number of clubs this term including; wall climbing, tag rugby, cross country, football, dance, gymnastics and cheerleading.
Sports Premium money has been used for 2 of our staff to gain level 5 sports leadership qualifications. This is a 6 module course taking place over a whole year.
We are in the process of gaining quotes for a daily mile track and the installation of outdoor gym equipment. The plan is this equipment will be used in PE lessons, partly to provide measurable data concerning the children’s fitness levels throughout the year.
We currently have 6 children participating in a getting girls active course operated by the Sports Action Association. The aim of this is to encourage reluctant girls to participate in sport.
A bmx workshop has been booked for Spring 2020. This promises to be lots of fun, with the aim being to encourage children to take risks, build resilience and try new challenges. On the same day the BMX world champion will also be delivering a staff Inset training on developing growth mindset within children.
