PE and Sport Premium for Primary Schools
Hunsley Primary has received the ‘Gold’ School Games Award again in 2024-25!
Our Vision for Sport and Physical Education at Hunsley Primary
The school believes that the opportunity to take part in sports and physical activities is the right of every child, regardless of age, gender, ability or interest. It is the school’s obligation to ensure all children are offered regular, meaningful opportunities to participate in physical sports and that all children are encouraged to do so, and their achievements celebrated, both as individuals and as a team.
The school’s motto is ‘We are a Team!’ which is fitting in all areas of the curriculum, but especially team sports and physical activities, and we extend this team ethos to our teaching colleagues at the secondary school by engaging as often as possible with whole school sports clubs and events at South Hunsley and working closely with the PE staff and Sports Leaders to provide our pupils with engaging activities and role models to deliver them. Such activities raise the levels of engagement in sports in our young children and consequently raise the sense of wellbeing and involvement, as well as, more broadly, their overall achievement academically: we identify there is a link between full engagement in sports, a sense of wellbeing and good levels of attendance.
PE and Sport Premium Spending – our Intent, Implementation, Impact and plans for Sustainability
Three years ago, Hunsley Primary set down the following priorities for the development of Physical Education and Sport and these helped to form our INTENT:
- Adding to and developing existing sports equipment and activities, including introducing further participation in sports competitions as part of the Educational Alliance Trust primary school shared objectives
- Planning out our longer-term use of the funding for the benefit of pupils joining the school in the future, especially developing spaces in school for play, sports and competition – to give models for healthy engagement in sport for our youngest children in EYFS, who do not qualify for the Premium but do base their engagement and interest on the models they see day-to-day all around them in school and out, so that the school’s children and staff embrace physical activity, competitive and non-competitive sports and develop a team ethos across the Trust partnership of sharing expertise between staff
- Further development of a culture of confident sports leadership in our staff and our pupils to build capacity for leadership at all levels, including TAs and support staff
- Embedding the good practice we have begun around the Active Mile with pupil-led engagement, to help pupils model to pupils what an active lifestyle is
- Developing the pupil leadership of playtimes with organized activities and pupil records of engagement celebrated whole school
- Consolidating the information and support we provide for mental health and wellbeing by making a direct link between the development of physical and mental health priorities in the school improvement cycle
- Creating a ‘register of participation’ to track where there are children who do not access any (or access very limited) physical activity outside of the school offer so that targeted intervention can take place using the PE and Sports Funding – ‘Activity for All’ agenda
- Submitting a successful application for the School Games Mark
Measuring the IMPACT of the PE and Sport Premium
We measure the IMPACT of our implentation in the following ways:
- Progress of individual pupils in PE (Insight records of summative assessments)
- Progress of groups of pupils in PE, e.g. girls, boys, SEND
- Engagement of pupils in extra-curricular sports
- Achievement of pupils in PSHE Health and Wellbeing
- Achievement of pupils against the Hunsley Primary Characteristics of Learning across the year
- Feedback from staff members regarding the effectiveness of CPD
- Feedback of pupils about enjoyment of activities in school (playtime, lunchtime, PE lessons) as part of Curriculum Reviews
- Quality Assurance activities related to Teaching, Learning and Assessment in PE lessons (M&E: open classrooms, teacher feedback, Governor monitoring)
- Feedback from secondary Community Sports Leaders involved, parents and pupils
- Attendance figures for all children, especially on PE curriculum days
- The further development and longevity of partnerships with external agencies and how well these can evolve to meet school’s priorities and needs
- Participation in activities and competitions organised by school (including those organised by South Hunsley Partnership)
- Participation in clubs and activities organised at home – engagement of pupils in an active lifestyle
- Numbers of children achieving the Key Stage 2 statutory swimming standard in Y6
- Engagement of pupils in Walk to School Weeks, Bikeability, Pedestrian Safety training
Reporting the PE and Sport Premium Spending
All state-maintained schools, academies, middle schools, special schools and pupil referral units which have primary aged pupils receive the PE and Sports Premium funding to ensure sustainable, meaningful and effective engagement in sports for all pupils. The funding is ring-fenced and can only be spent on provision for PE and sports activity in schools.
Schools are required to publish on-line information about how they have used the additional funding, including:
- the amount of premium funding received
- a full breakdown of how it has been spent
- the impact seen by the school on pupils’ participation and attainment in PE and sport
- how this improvement will be sustained
