Outcomes of the session.• Clear guidance on the effective use of the Primary Sport
Funding.• A summary of Ofsted guidance and recommendations.• Looking at useful resources and materials to support
schools around the audit, action planning and impact of the spend.
• Case studies of good practice.• The chance to network with other schools about how they
are using the funding.• The opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
National Messages
Anna Hamilton (Lead for PE & School Sport at the Dept for Education):• Key is definitely still sustainability • Money must add value (even if PE provision was brilliant
before)• Must consider how future pupils will benefit from the
funding and not just existing ones• Need to consider if any service provided by an external
provider (i.e. coaching company) is specific to that school and it’s needs and requirements
• Sustainability is most at risk when using external providers
Sue Campbell• PE is compulsory National Curriculum Subject and
therefore Teachers MUST NOT be replaced (if this happens then it devalues the subject!!)
• Key success factor is that PE is seen as a serious subject within schools and in order for this to happen it must impact on one or some of the following:
• Emotional well being • Improving Behaviour • Increasing attendance • Raising Achievement • Parental engagement • Transition and partnership working
• Ofsted will (should!) ask how is funding improving the education and health of all pupils and HTs should be able to answer this
Vision
All pupils leaving primary school physically literate and with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.
Objective
To achieve
self-sustaining improvement in the
quality of PE and sport in primary schools.
Government announcement: PE &Sport Premium
• £150 million a year (DH, DfE), ring fenced to support delivery of PE and sport in primary schools (2020 promise)
• Funding allocated through a lump sum for each school. Enter spend details (53%) on school web site
• Ofsted inspection report – October 2014
• Best practice videos
What can we spend the funding on?
Key questions to ask yourselves when making spendingdecisions:
How will this investment address the need identified bythis specific school?
What will be the impact of this investment on: children in the school at the moment? children in the school in 5 / 10 years’ time (what will thelasting legacy be?)
PE and sport supports whole school improvement• Participation in PE and sport can improve a huge
range of social skills, promote inclusion and lead to better cohesion
• Participation in quality PE and sport can improve physical and mental well-being which will transfer into measureable school achievement outcomes
• PE and sport can also help to shape behaviour, reduce truancy and develop leadership skills
Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development
Ofsted report: Going the extra mile
The aim of the report was to explore if their was a link between the quality of Competitive School Sport (CSS) provision and later sporting success
Recommendations from the Ofsted reportThe recommendations to the school sector cover areas:
1. Importance of the role CSS plays in improving school ethos.2. Embed CS firmly in the school culture and a central part of school life. Staff/
Governors and students3. Well structured and supported programme for both participation and the most
able.4. Expect all their students to take part regularly and meet the demand.5. Ensure the most talented get access to support and facilities – inspect to skills
and fitness6. Foster strong club links to get more students doing sport outside of school7. Develop partnerships to build sporting pathways primary transition and with local
clubs.8. Improve their provision of CSS by learning from others - Offer a wide range but priorities a few to excel at- Provide enough time within PE and sport enrichment programme to attain high
standards- Use expert coaches to work along side your teachers and hold them
accountable for success.
How can we use the findings to improve what we do?

school as a tool for whole school improvement

Good practice to maximise effective use of the
funding
Recommendations from Report:
Schools should:• ensure that their strategic plans for using the new funding include clear, measurable targets for improvement
• clearly show how school leaders will evaluate the impact that the premium is having on improving PE and sports provision
• regularly monitor the work of specialist PE teachers and sports coaches to ensure that their teaching and coaching are consistently good
• ensure that the professional development of staff is systematically planned and tailored to the individual needs of teachers and classroom assistants
• monitor the impact of professional development to ensure a lasting legacy of consistently good teaching of PE
• identify ‘non-participants’ in extra-curricular sport and provide additional activities to encourage their immediate and longer-term participation in sport and physical activity
• introduce activities specifically aimed at enabling their most able pupils to achieve high standards in PE and sport
• forge links with a wider range of external sports clubs to achieve sustainable ways of engaging all pupils in physical activity and sport
• work closely with parents and carers and local health agencies to promote the health and well-being of all pupils, especially those who are overweight or obese.
