What is Sports Premium funding?

Sports Premium funding is provided by the government to improve physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools.  In 2014, the government announced that schools would continue to receive the Sports Premium until 2020.  As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, the funding was extended through 2021/22.  Confirmation was then given that funding would be extended to the academic year 2022/23.  Funding was then confirmed for 2023/24 and 2024/2025.

In 2024/25, Green Oaks had an available budget of £17,700. This has gone towards enhancing the provision of PE and sport for all children across the school, staff CPD, PE interventions and experiences for our children and a range of opportunities for our children to compete, both in school and at area or regional competitions.  Additionally, funding has been used to provide a wider range of play and sports equipment to embed physical activity into daily school life at Green Oaks.  

Our commitment to PE is strongly linked to Green Oaks Primary School Values as well as those of the Greenwood Academy Trust as a whole.
