What is the Sports Premium?

The Government has provided funding of £150 million per annum since 2014 to improve provision of physical education (P.E.) and sport in primary schools. This funding is being jointly provided by the Department for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sports and will be allocated to primary school head teachers to spend on improving the quality of sport and P.E. for all their children. The sports funding can only be spent on sport and P.E. provision in schools. Funding will be calculated by reference to the number of primary-aged pupils (between the ages of 5 and 11), as recorded in the annual schools census.
