Sports Funding Premium
At Harby C of E Primary School we believe that the inclusion of sport and physical activity is important in developing healthy lifestyle awareness. It is important for pupils to also be involved in activities that facilitate skill development and competitive elements. There is a longstanding link between physical development and coordination and academic achievement, concentration and focus.
From September 2013, schools have received funding for this which is ring-fenced and can only be spent on developing this area. The funding must be spent on improving the provision of Physical Education and sport for the benefit of pupils so that they develop healthy lifestyles.
The Sports Premium has recently been increased and is linked to the Governments Obesity Strategy with the aim of promoting a healthier more active population. At Harby we believe that a healthy body and a healthy mind is essential. This year we have linked up with a local charity, Inspire+, to deliver a range of high quality, sustainable and motivational activities, lessons and sports with an aim of increasing engagement, enjoyment and long term health. We have had visits from Olympic athletes as well as explorers and adventurers.
