Sport Premium
School Sport Premium
The government introduced additional funding of £150 million per annum for academic years 2013 to 2014 and 2014 to 2015 to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding - provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport - was allocated to primary school headteachers.
This funding has now been extended until 2025, allowing schools to continue the excellent work started in creating a legacy of sport and engaging our young children in new sorting activities.
This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.

Eligible schools
Funding for schools will be calculated by reference to the number of primary-aged pupils (between the ages of 5 and 11), as recorded in the annual schools census in January 2022.
Purpose of funding
Schools must spend the additional funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.
Possible uses for the funding might include:
- hiring specialist PE teachers or qualified sports coaches to work with primary teachers when teaching PE
- supporting and engaging the least active children through new or additional Change4Life clubs
- paying for professional development opportunities for teachers in PE and sport
- providing cover to release primary teachers for professional development in PE and sport
- running sport competitions, or increasing pupils’ participation in the School Games
- buying quality assured professional development modules or materials for PE and sport
- providing places for pupils on after school sports clubs and holiday clubs
- pooling the additional funding with that of other local schools.
The Premium is being used to meet the 5 main aims of the funding:
1. the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity – kickstarting healthy active lifestyles
2. the profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement
3. increased confidence, knowledge and skills of all staff in teaching PE and sport
4. broader experience of a range of sports and activities offered to all pupils
5. increased participation in competitive sport
The school aims to ensure sustainability of the activities and high level PE lessons through investing in staff training, including support staff and the positive ethos created in school regarding sport and exercise. Plans have already been instigated to ensure competitions and work with local providers can be continued and partnerships are being devised to allow coaching and use of facilities to be affordable when the funding is reduced or stopped. Ribby with Wrea are keen to ensure the positive impact of the Sport Premium funding continues to benefit the pupils of the school both now and in the future.
Sport Premium and its impact at Ribby with Wrea.
Since the introduction of the Sport Premium Funding (2013), staff at Ribby with Wrea have worked tirelessly to offer and provide new opportunities for all pupils, enhance the provision of inter school sport competitions, encourage new skills and activities and create a positive attitude towards healthy eating, lifestyles and exercise.
Tracking of pupil participation is undertaken annually of extra curricular activities and representation of the school at sporting events. This data is used to ensure pupils are all gaining opportunities and ensure the needs are met for all pupils.
Over the past few years the number of inter school events held at Carr Hill and AKS have increased and on average pupils from Ribby with Wrea are attending a sports festival or competition every week. Participation rates in KS2 where most events are aimed has seen 100% participation in Years4,5 and 6 in recent years.
This positive approach to sport has resulted in positive outcomes in PE and attainment levels are increasing across the school in PE. Staff are always looking at new ways to develop the core skills and introduce games skills, as well as develop gymnastic and dance attributes.
Sustainability
To ensure the long term success and continuation of activities and events the school has ensured staff both teaching and non-teaching have had access to and attended many courses and training activities over the years. New initiatives (Lancashire PE APP) have been adopted and staff work hard to embed these into the day to day activities of the school. resources are frequently reviewed and replaced when necessary and links with local sports clubs and coaches have been established to ensure opportunities for signposting pupils to activities outside of school.
The school reflects on its practice and reviews the annual action plan ensuring a continual development and sustainability of the provision.
