Sports funding was introduced by the Government in September 2013. It was designed to give additional money to support schools in developing Physical Education in Schools and build an ‘Olympic Legacy’. This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to primary school head teachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children. ### How should we use it? Schools must spend the funding to improve the quality of the PE and sport activities they offer their pupils, but they are free to choose the best way of using the money. #### For example, the funding could be used to: - Hire specialist PE teachers - Hire qualified sports coaches to work with teachers such as Team Spirit - Provide existing staff with teaching resources to help them teach PE and sport - Support and involve the least active children by running or extending school sports clubs and holiday clubs - Run sport competitions or increase pupils’ participation in the School Games - Run sports activities with other schools - Improve the outdoor physical play equipment to encourage children to be more active - Provide supplementary swimming lessons - Purchase PE equipment to support the delivery of PE lessons - Purchase a scheme of work to support teachers in the delivery of PE lessons For more information on the PE and sport premium see the PE and Sport Reports for each school.
