Sports Premium

academic year 2013/14. This funding was jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and saw money going directly to primary school headteachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children. This funding has continued and increased since that time.

The purpose of the funding is that schools will have to spend the funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this. Providing sustainability for the future is a key factor.

Allocation

Funding for schools is calculated by the number of primary aged pupils (between the ages of 5 and 11) as at the annual census in January.

Greenfield Primary received:

£17879 for 2018/19.

£17851 for 2019/20

£18000 for 2020/21

Accountability

Schools are held to account for how they spend the sport funding. Ofsted has strengthened its coverage of sport and PE within the Inspectors Handbook and supporting guidance, so that schools and inspectors know how sport and PE will be assessed in future as part of the school's overall provision offered.
