Sport Premium Funding

The government is providing additional funding to improve the provision of physical education (P.E.) and sport in primary schools.

This money is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of P.E. and sport in schools. This years sports premium grant is £18,730.

At Theydon Bois Primary School we spend the additional funding on improving the provision and standard of P.E. and sport.  

As a school we take pride in being able to provide a wide range of opportunities in P.E. and Sport across the key stages. Pupils have participated competitively in Football, Tag Rugby, Netball, Athletics, Swimming, Gymnastics and much more. We have a range of extra-curricular sports activities available to all pupils with thanks to outside coaches and the time generously given by school staff.

We spend our allocation of the Sports Premium Funding in a variety of ways, including:

• a specialist swimming instructor;
• CPD courses;
• New P.E. equipment;
• extra-curricular clubs;
• subscribing to the West Essex School Sports Partnership (WESSP) to:
  • provide opportunities to compete/participate in a range of sporting events;
  • facilitate access to CPD for staff;
  • provide targeted events for SEN, PPG pupils;
  • provide expert coaching/mentoring for schools;
  • an SSCO to run intra-house competitions.

Further information regarding the funding and its impact on pupil’s attainment in P.E. will be reported on the website.
