School Sport Premium
Our plan for the spending of our allocation of School Sport Premium Money is shown below.
Any money invested into sport enhances the variety and quantity of opportunities given to our children. As a school, we are constantly encouraging a healthier lifestyle, through ensuring PE is taught for 2 hours per week, our daily Finchale Fitness sessions, active playtimes and after school sports clubs are made available.
We ensure that specialist coaches are brought into school in order to provide coaching to the children at the highest level in each discipline. These sessions are monitored and feedback given on the provision.
Teaching staff work closely with coaches in order to improve their own practice. They observe lessons and apply what they learn, to improve the quality of provision for the children.
