PE and Sports Premium
Schools have a central role to play in supporting all children and young people to live healthy active lives.
The PE and Sport Premium is government funding that helps primary schools improve physical education, sport and physical activity. For 2026-2027. schools will receive transitional funding bases on their number of eligible pupils in Year 1 to 6. The finding must add to what the school already provides and support improvements that will benefit pupils in future years.
At Holy Ghost Catholic Primary School, we want every child to enjoy being active and have opportunities to develop their skills and confidence. We will use the premium to strengthen PE teaching and widen access to physical activity and sport, including opportunities for pupils who may need extra support to take part. 
We use the funding to improve the quality of P.E. and Sport provision at Holy Ghost Primary School in the following ways:
- Hiring professional sports coaches to teach the children different sports during curriculum time and during after-school clubs.
- Procuring quality assured professional training for staff to raise their confidence and competence in teaching P.E. and sport through the Active Wandsworth Initiative.
- Supporting regular sport tournaments, festivals and competitions for pupils of all ages.
- Entering children into different leagues and competitions.
- Purchasing new equipment for the school so that the children can develop their skills further in P.E. lessons.
- Purchasing new equipment for use in after-school clubs to improve the diversity of clubs.
- Purchasing more sports equipment for use during play times.
