Sports Premium

 

What is a ‘Sports Premium’?

The government allocate a certain amount of money each year to schools in order to aid the development of sport and PE throughout the country.

How is the money allocated?

The primary PE and sport premium 2018 to 2019 (“the premium”) will be paid by the Secretary of State for Education (“Secretary of State”) to the local authority (“authority”). The authority will then distribute the premium to maintained schools in its area as stated in Section 14 of the Education Act 2002

What is the money going to be spent on?

For the academic year of 2017/18, Fosters primary school have received a funding of £19,560 to support the development of sport throughout the school.

The premium will be spent on making additional and sustainable improvements to the provision of PE and sport for the benefit of all pupils to encourage the development of healthy, active lifestyles.
