SPORTS PREMIUM

The Sports Premium Funding has been given to every Primary school this year to improve provision in P.E. and sport.

This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of P.E. and sport in schools.

Our aim is to use this funding to develop the level of staff expertise in order to have a sustained impact for our children. Therefore, we took the decision to use this funding to employ outside sports coaches in certain areas so that they could team teach with our staff to upskill them for this year and beyond.

During the academic year 2019 – 2020 Lyons Hall spent our funding of £20,800 on the following areas:

Continuous Professional Development opportunities for staff

Teachers and P.E. staff will be offered in house support and guidance from our in-house sports coach and from working alongside outside experts. For this academic year, our focus will be on dance. The quality of teaching will be monitored by our P.E. team. Through both team teaching and self-evaluation, confidence will be assessed to ensure staff are developing their skills over the course of the year to ensure they’re delivering lessons which result in better outcomes for our pupils.

Provision of extra-curricular clubs

Clubs will be provided both before and after school. Our target is to continue to increase the number on role who attend at least one club.

We will continue to monitor attendance at these clubs to ensure we utilise sports premium funding, including providing equipment to assist in the running of pre-school and after-school clubs.

Updating and expanding P.E. and sports equipment

There was a considerable investment in P.E. equipment during the last academic year. This will continue over this academic year, replenishing and developing the games equipment.

Opportunities to Inspire

We will use this funding to join the Braintree Schools Partnership. This partnership in conjunction with Sainsbury’s School Games provides us with entry to all competitions from Level 1, which is local, to Level 3 which is at County level.

We will also use this funding to continue our membership with the Braintree Dance Network. Furthermore, we will be taking part in Keeping Dance Alive

Lastly our Year 4s and staff will take part in a six-week programme surrounding dance and technology. This will in turn upskill three members of staff involved in this project.

We will also use our close ties with Braintree Town to source a coach to work closely across all year groups, providing expertise in the teaching of maths, literacy and PSHCE through football and football skills.

Travel

Funding shall be used to support children getting to and from fixtures and events over the course of the year.

Impact of Sports Premium Funding 2018 – 2019

In the financial year 2018-2019, Lyons Hall received £20,500 for sports funding.

During this year: Teaching staff worked closely with our P.E. co-ordinator on a programme of continuous professional development.  The impact of this was the pupils received high quality teaching across the full P.E. curriculum.  We also had an FA coach in to work with almost every teacher, providing coaching sessions for classes and upskilling teachers, assisting them to take their Primary Teachers Award.

Opportunities and Outcomes

Our children have taken part in various dance festivals, including performing at the Essex County Cricket Ground.

We have competed in a huge variety of sporting events including new sports and activities such as parkour, BMX, rapid fire cricket and attending the wilderness foundation.  We were County finalists in sports such as cheerleading, cricket and gymnastics. We won the Braintree large schools swimming gala for the first time in 7 years.

Involvement of the wider community

We organised and hosted the large and small school football rally for schools in the district.  Additionally, we ran and maintained the girls’ football leagues for the local area.

Further impact

The funding also enabled us to increase our already existing extracurricular provision.  Throughout the year, we have been able to provide 14 sporting clubs per week.

We have invested considerably in our P.E. equipment.
