PE and Sport Premium

Please read the information below which gives details of our PE and Sport Premium Grant and how we allocate the funding.

Our funding was spent on continuing to employ specialist staff to provide high quality curricular, lunchtime and after school support  as follows:

All lessons are to be conducted outside and extra lessons have been planned to cover the loss of the indoor curriculum.

No list is given on what a "contact sport" is – but  naturally rugby, football, netball, basketball and hockey will all not be possible.

Schools are also able to work with external coaches, clubs and organisations for curricular and extracurricular activities – if deemed safe
