The Government provides funding to each school to improve the quality of sport and PE for children in primary schools. The funding that we receive annually over this period is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools. Schools are free to decide how to spend the grant, but they must be able to show that their spending has led to a “direct and sustained” improvement in sporting provision.

 

The guidance from the DfE and EFA says that schools should use the funding to:

• Develop or add to the PE and sport activities they already offer.
• Make improvements that will benefit pupils joining the school in future years.

 

At Lantern Lane, we are committed to ensuring appropriate and relevant PE provision for all of our children in line with our intent statement that promotes the development of 'healthy bodies and minds'. Both the PE curriculum - and the range of extra-curricular activities on offer - are a vital part of this intent but also play an important role in the children developing our C.A.R.E values.

​

Promoting an active lifestyle is supported by introducing children to a wide range of different sports and activities, promoting the message that there are many ways to improve fitness and that fun & enjoyment are important elements in our choice.

​

Below, you can see the different 'active' choices, funded partly through the Sports Premium, that children experience during their time at Lantern Lane:
