On your child/children’s PE days, they need to bring their PE kits to change into.

 

During the cooler months, we advise that the children wear jogging bottoms and a hoodie/jacket to keep them warm as outdoor PE slots will commence unless there are extreme weather conditions e.g. heavy rain, ice or snow. 

What is Sports Premium Funding?

The Sports Premium Funding is an initiative facilitated by the current Government to enhance the provision of P.E. and School Sport in primary schools. Each year, primary schools receive a lump sum depending on the number of pupils on roll and then a further £10.00 per pupil on roll.

 

Initially, the funding that Woodhouse West Primary received allowed the school to continue developing its provision. The school will continue to develop its P.E. curriculum, providing a rich, varied and balanced provision with resources enhanced, providing quality staff CPD and high quality teaching and learning for all children. It will also provide further exciting opportunities for all children to be challenged and allow them to compete in school and out of school.

 

The Association for Physical Education (afPE) website provides advice on how the Primary PE & Sport Premium should be used.

 

What have Woodhouse West Primary received and how are we spending the funding in 2023/24?

For the academic year 2023/24, we have been awarded £19,060 Sports Premium funding for this year and will continue to direct these funds towards a self-sustaining, quality PE provision.

The funds will be spent on resources, staff CPD, transport, participation in competitions, health and wellbeing interventions.

 

The funding enabled us to increase our PE resources and provide the following:

• Combine PE with Healthy schools

• Elite package to Forge SSP membership
• Sustain and improve quality of extended learning opportunities

Forge School Sport Partnership

Forge School Sport Partnership was originally established in 2001 as part of a Government PE and School Sport strategy to increase participation in high quality Physical Education and School Sport.

 

Handsworth Grange Community Sports College is the base, and supports the work of the partnership which currently includes 25 Primary Schools and 3 Secondary Schools, which means that we are providing high quality PE and Sport opportunities to over 10,000 pupils.

 

We firmly believe that sport and all that it encompasses truly can change the lives of young people and contribute towards raising aspirations, improving academic attainment and preparing young people to move forward in their lives.

 

Our vision

All pupils leaving primary school physically literate and with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport.

 

Objectives

To achieve self-sustaining improvement in the quality of PE and sport in primary schools. 

Indicators of such improvement should include:

​

•      the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity – kick-starting healthy active lifestyles

•      the profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement

•      increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport

•      broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils

•      increased participation in competitive sport
