The aim of the PE and Sports Premium is to improve the provision of PE and sport and to encourage pupils to develop healthy lifestyles. Government provides funding for schools to make additional and sustainable improvements to provision, such as:

• Funding high quality PE and sport for at least two hours per week, complemented by a wide range of extracurricular sport and competitive opportunities
• Providing or improving equal access to sport for boys and girls

Schools should prioritise PE and sport premium spending to improve in the following five key areas:

• Increasing all staff’s confidence, knowledge and skills in teaching PE and sport
• Increasing engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity and sport
• Raising the profile of PE and sport across the school, to support whole school improvement
• Offering a broader and more equal experience of a range of sports and physical activities to all pupils
• Increasing participation in competitive sport

Below are the school’s Sport Premium Strategies which outline how we are using the funding at Holne Chase School.
