PE and Sports Premium

The PE and Sport Premium is designed to help children get an active start in life, supporting primary schools to improve the quality of their PE and sport provision so that pupils experience the benefits of regular exercise – from becoming healthier both mentally and physically to improved behaviour and better academic achievement.

Sports Premium Strategy 2024-2025

During this period the school will receive £17,630

At Charnwood Primary Academy we aim to equip all children with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to for them to lead healthy, active lifestyles.

Using sports funding, staff are trained to provide high quality teaching lessons, PE lessons are fully resourced and additional opportunities are provided for children to develop knowledge and enjoyment of a wider range of sports and activities.

What is the PE and Sports Premium Funding?

Department for Education

All children and young people should live healthy active lives. The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend that all children and young people should take part in moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity for at least 60 minutes every day.

• Schools have a key role to play in achieving this aim.
• This is particularly true of primary schools where the foundations of positive and enjoyable participation in regular physical activity are embedded.
• All children should have equal access to high-quality PE provision and opportunities to experience and participate in a wide range of sports and physical activities.
• Academic achievement can improve in school because of the benefits children can gain.

The sport funding can only be spent on sport and PE provision in schools.

The Intent of our Physical Education Curriculum 

PE at Charnwood aims to develop the knowledge and skills necessary for mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing in our children. Physical fitness is an important part of leading a healthier lifestyle. We follow the National Curriculum and aim to offer children a wide range of sports that children might not get to experience anywhere else.  We aim to deliver high-quality teaching and learning opportunities that inspire all children to succeed in physical activities. Furthermore, we want to teach children how to cooperate and collaborate with others as part of a team. Children should be able to enjoy competition, inside and outside of school, whilst playing with fairness and respect.  Learns should learn that the only way to be successful is to work hard, show resilience and believe that anything is possible. Finally, all children should understand how to live a healthy lifestyle away from school by recognising the need for regular fun physical activity, socialising, avoidance of stress, healthy nutrition and quality sleep.
