How has the grant been spent or will be spent?
| Staff development and enhanced curriculum provision through use of professional coaching expertise | We have funding to employ specialist coaches who deliver one lesson for each class per week. The units of work are specified by the Haddenham Area School Sports Partnership to ensure progression between schools. The coach is employed by Sports Factor. We rate the quality of the coaching sessions delivered as good.
Teachers work with the coach to ensure continued CPD. The sports coach is also employed directly with the school in order to assist our PE leader with delivery of the PE curriculum. |
| Inter school activities | We have set up the ‘Haddenham Area School Sports Partnership’. This consists of a group of five schools who work together to ensure good quality sports provision within their schools. We also organise inter school events. On an annual basis the HASSP group runs a tag rugby event, a cross country competition, an EYFS sports afternoon, a dance festival and a multi-sports event. We also maintain the hassp.org website. |
| Equipment | This year we have focused our expenditure on purchasing new playtime sports equipment and gym mats. |
| Sports visits/events | All children were able to participate in a Bollywood dance event in the Autumn term this year which was very enjoyable for all involved but also linked with our religious studies topic of Diwali. |
| Grounds maintenance | We have allocated a proportion of our Sports Grant to maintaining our sports grounds and playground areas to ensure they are always safe and ready for use. |
| Lunchtime enrichment | This year we have provided further training for our Midday Supervisors in delivering “effective strategies for the playground” and have allocated one Midday Supervisor each day to provide enrichment through playground games. |
What impact has there been on pupil participation and attainment leading to all pupils developing a healthy lifestyle?
Children have at least two hours of curriculum sport per week with an additional wake and shake session.
We offer a range of extra curricular clubs (at least one per day) that involve physical activity, offering a total of 120 places per week. Approximately 50% of children are currently engaged in physical activity clubs at school. There is good coverage of varied sports across the school year that includes athletics, dance, gym and multi-skills.
Although the lunchtime enrichment programme is in its infancy, early indications are that a wider range of children are becoming engaged in physical activity and it is helping them to build positive relationships resulting in happier lunchtimes.
