Sports and PE Premium

At Hucknall National C of E Primary School, we recognise the significant role that physical education, sport, and physical activity play in the health and development of our pupils. We are committed to using the PE and Sport Premium to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of our provision, ensuring every child has the opportunity to enjoy and benefit from being active.

The PE and Sport Premium is allocated to primary schools across the country to support schools in developing or enhancing their existing PE and sport offer. The funding also helps build long-term capacity within schools, so that high-quality provision continues to benefit pupils in the years to come.

We use the funding to:

• Develop or expand the PE, physical activity, and sporting opportunities we already provide

• Ensure that all improvements are sustainable and make a lasting difference

• Enhance staff confidence, skills and subject knowledge in delivering high-quality PE lessons

• Broaden the range of sports and activities available to pupils

• Increase pupils’ participation in regular physical activity and competitive sport

• Raise the profile of PE and sport across the school as a driver for whole-school improvement

Our aim is for every child to engage in at least 30 minutes of physical activity during the school day, contributing to the Chief Medical Officer’s recommendation of 60 minutes of daily activity for children and young people aged 5–18.
