PE and Sport Premium

PE & Sport Premium at Lons Infant School

Every school in the county has been given extra funding from the government to improve physical education in schools. The government saw this happening in a number of ways;

The money could be used to give teachers and teaching assistants more training in teaching PE
Specialist sports coaches could be brought in to help increase the skill levels of staff in delivering PE
Money could be spent on facilities and equipment for PE and sport in school
More children take part in PE, therefore reducing obesity levels in children and promoting healthier lifestyles.

We create a self sustaining improvement in the quality of PE by having a member of staff to co-ordinate PE and Forest School. We work with a AVSSP coach to deliver PE, develop staff knowledge and provide clubs at lunchtime and after school. Membership of the AVSSP provides support, training and the use of equipment. We are also extending our own PE equipment and resources.

Impact statement on 2020/2021
- Staff when they were able to work with the sports coach have been exposed to high quality sport. Covid has had some impact on this due to school closures. We continued to work during the school closure and provide home sports learning with the sports coach through virtual means.
- Yoga has been the same as the sports coach. The children had the sessions virtually in school and then this transferred to virtually at home during the pandemic. The children have valued these sessions during the pandemic and moments for calm and peace.
- Swimming was cancelled due to the pandemic and school limited the amount of additional visitors so this area has not been fully explored.
- PE coordinator has been kept up to date through virtual means rather than face-to-face training.
- No further training has taken place for the sports leader due to covid.
- Due to the underspend from Covid we used the money to create a PE storage area in the hall and an audit of equipment has taken place to replace and extend in the next academic year.
