 Sports Premium Spending

The governing body regularly evaluate the efficacy of spending.  The principle aim is to achieve sustained long term benefits for the children.  At Sale & Davys we aim to:

• Provide training for staff to develop their confidence and competence in teaching PE
• Provide access to a wider range of physical and sporting activities both in and out of school
• Increase the number of children who participate in competitive sport
• Increase the amount of physical activity undertaken at school
• Purchase resources that will enhance our PE and sport curriculum

How we have/will use this funding:

• Provide staff with in-service training that will enable them to teach high quality PE
• Provide professional PE training for staff to develop their knowledge and expertise in PE teaching through the Derby Schools Sports Partnership
• Provide training for Physical Literacy with a focus on Early Years
• Facilitate participation in sporting leagues, festivals and tournaments
• Purchase equipment that will be available during lunchtimes and play times to encourage physical activity
• Have a designated play leader at lunchtime to play and implement physical activity
• Purchase school kits to enable more children to participate in external sporting events
• Provide release time for the PE Co-ordinator to allow for the Sports Funding action plan to be implemented, including the organisation of intra-school sporting events
• Provide an ongoing programme of sporting after school clubs

How the funding will impact our school::

• Increased participation in competitive sport for Key Stage 2 children
• Increased number of whole school intra sports events
• Access to wider range of equipment and sporting opportunities
• Participation in new sports and new competitions
• Increased opportunities for after school sporting clubs
• Celebration and recognition of school sport achievement through awards 

The school's PE co-ordinator does periodic lesson observations to monitor and review the impact of funding.  This helps to ensure the improvements we make are sustainable.
