Sports Premium 2018/19

THE USE OF SPORTS PREMIUM AT BROADMEADOW JUNIOR SCHOOL 2018/2019

From September 2013, Ofsted assesses and reports on how effectively the new school sport funding is being used to improve PE and sport provision in schools. They believe that when young people leave school they often stop playing sports, which means they can’t fulfil their sporting potential, leading to a less healthy lifestyle. The funding is aimed at getting more people playing sport safely from a young age, to help them keep playing sport throughout their life, no matter what their economic or social background.

HOW MUCH IS THE SPORTS PREMIUM GRANT

Allocations are calculated using the number of pupils in Years 1 to 6 as recorded at the January Census as follows:

Schools with 16 or fewer eligible pupils receive £1,000 per pupil.

Schools with 17 or more eligible pupils receive £16,000 and an additional payment of £10 per pupil.

How is this being spent?

Sports premium money has been spent in 2018/19 to build improvement in the following areas:

Key indicator 1: the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity - the Chief Medical Officer guidelines recommend that all children and young people aged 5 to 18 engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity a day, of which 30 minutes should be in school.

• More opportunities for children to become involved in sport have been offered through lunchtime sports activities delivered by Premier Active.

• After-school clubs and activities have been offered throughout the year to engage more pupils.

• Extra sports equipment to be bought for lunch time play and games / PE lessons as necessary.

Key indicator 2: The profile of PE and sport is raised across the school as a tool for whole-school improvement.

• Extra swimming for Year 6 took place during the summer term to enable more children to meet the requirement of swimming at least 25m by the end of key stage 2 and therefore raise school success rates in sport.

Key indicator 3: increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport.

• Year 5 teachers have been working alongside specialised coaches for the teaching of cricket during the spring term.

• The school is affiliated with the Kings Heath Boys School Sports Partnership who provide training and support to the PE co-ordinator and can provide CPD to other staff where necessary.

Key indicator 4: broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils

• Children have been offered opportunities to experience different sports through after-school clubs and lunchtime supervised sports.

• The whole of Year 3 participated in a Multi-skills tournament linking up with other schools in the area.

Key indicator 5: increased participation in competitive sport

• Membership to the Kings Heath Boys School Sports partnership gives more opportunities for participation in sporting events with other local schools.

• The whole of Year 3 participated in a Multi-skills tournament linking up with other schools in the area.
