What is Sports Premium funding?

Sports Premium funding is provided by the government to improve physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools.  In 2014, the government announced that schools would continue to receive the sports premium until 2020.  As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the funding was extended through 2021/22.  Confirmation was then given that funding would be extended to the academic year 2022/23.  Funding was then confirmed for 2023/24.

In 2023/24, Green Oaks had an available budget of £17,700.  This has gone towards the provision of PE and sport for all of our children across the school, staff training, PE intervention experiences for our children and multiple opportunities to compete, both in school and at area and regional competitions.  In 2023/24, Green Oaks commitment to PE and Sport has resulted in us receiving the School Games Gold Award.

Our commitment to PE is strongly linked to Green Oaks Primary School Values as well as those of the Greenwood Academy Trust as a whole.
