Takeley Primary School

Sports Premium Funding

PE and Sport at Takeley plays an important part in helping us to achieve our vision, our mission, our aims and our values, while helping the children develop and understand a healthy lifestyle and looking after their well-being.

To support this national initiative and build on the ‘Olympic Legacy’ the Government has provided all schools with a PE and Sport Grant. For 2017-18 we are expecting to receive £19,300.00

Over this period, we aim to;

• continue to support the training of our teachers to help ensure future provision is sustainable by ensuring they work alongside a sports coach to deepen their knowledge and understanding of the ‘games’ aspect of Physical Education (PE).
• continue to participate in the District Sports Partnership to help facilitate children’s participation in inter-school sport and events.
• Improve the range and provision of PE equipment e.g. purchase basketball posts and balls so that Basketball can be included in the school’s curriculum.
• Improve the range of play equipment at lunchtimes to enable children to actively engage in physical exercise and to co-operate as part of a team.
• Plan for and build a key stage 2 adventure playground to enable children to develop; strength, balance, agility, flexibility, co-ordination, co-operation and teamwork
• Enhance staffing costs so that recognition is given to the leadership and management of this key national initiative 

Below is a breakdown of how we have actually spent the Sports Premium over the last financial year 2016/17;

For the third year in a row the school received the ‘Games Gold Award’ for its sports provision and for the children’s high levels of participation and sports leadership.

Please see the document below for a review of the school's 'Sports Premium' plan and an evaluation of the impact it had for 2016/17. Please do note that the planned costs do not match the actual costs given above due to the changing nature of the school's needs;
