Impact of spending
After school sports clubs which were run by funded Sports Coaches were well attended across the year. Children were able to develop their skills to support them when competing against other schools in our area.
Inter-school tournaments were attended throughout the year with our local cluster of schools. Teams from school participated in Tag Rugby, Cricket and Multi-skills tournaments.
Staff are becoming increasingly skilled in the teaching of PE. Lesson observations showed that teachers were able to use Core Tasks effectively in lessons to improve the skills of the children.
