Well done to all the staff at William Barnes for all their hard work towards the achievement of the Sainsbury’s School Games Gold Award 2018/2019 for the fourth year in succession. This recognises the impact that the Sporting Premium funding has had on the health and well being of our pupils.
Please click below to see the 2023/24 PE development plan. This shows the way the school has planned to spend its sporting premium funding and the impact this has had for academic year 2023/24 on the children’s health and well being.
PE Development plan 2023/24
All primary schools are now given special funding to improve the development of school sport. At William Barnes this money has been spent in a number of ways
- daily whole school wake and shake activity
- active learning included in teacher’s weekly plans
- to subsidise after school coaching (football, multi-skills, athletics, basketball, tennis, dodgeball and kayaking coaches have worked with the school in the past academic year)
- to employ coaches to work alongside teachers in lessons (A PE coach works with all staff in years 1 to 6 for a half term – a basketball coach works with all staff in KS2 for half a term – a tennis coach works with each KS2 class as well)
- to purchase new PE equipment (basketball hoops and stands, stop watches, rounders tees, a Sports Ambassadors noticeboard, football goals, stop watches, bibs, rounders bats and Change for Life club resources)
- to pay for courses to allow staff to improve their subject knowledge (member of staff attended handball course and now runs a handball club, a member of staff has attended the Sports ambassadors training, a member of staff has attended a Change for Life club)
- to pay teaching assistants to run after school clubs (Teaching assistants train the netball team after school and are paid for this from Sporting Premium fund)
- to pay supply cover for tournaments (Members of staff have attended football, cricket, rounders and rugby tournaments during the school day.)
The impact of the Sporting Premium Funding is proven by the school being awarded the Gold Sainsburys School Games award from 2015 – 2019
