Sports Premium

PE & Sport Provision

Since 2013, all UK schools have received funding from the Department for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport. The purpose of this funding is to improve the provision of PE, school sport, mental health and wellbeing.  This funding is additional to the school’s budget and schools are free to decide how to allocate it to best support and improve their provision of physical education and sport in order to encourage healthy active lifestyles which enable our children to become physically literate.  

Sports Premium

From the outset Bishop Martin has been committed to allocate strategically the Sports Premium funding with a view to ensuring sustainable long term benefits beyond the period of the additional funding.

Please see the documents below for detailed information as to what our Sports Premium will be used for this year, as well as a funding review of spending last year.

Curriculum Swimming

Schools are required to publish information about outcomes in swimming for Year 6 pupils. This is something that is paid for through the school's budget and Sport Premium Funding does not contribute (unless as a ‘top up’ to the core service). The following table reports on the percentage of pupils achieving the National Curriculum Expectations for swimming in Year 6 for 2021/22:
