At Parkgate Junior School we have been using our sports premium money to improve the P.E in our school. (The budget for Summer to Summer 2025/26 is £18350.00)

Below are some of the things we have used the money for:

• Teacher CPD (continuing professional development) – we have hired a professional sports coach, Miss Santangilo, who delivers high quality P.E. teaching across the school.

• A free multi-skills club and a free football club run by Miss Santangilo, our professional sports coach. This has allowed children who may have missed out before, due to financial issues, to take part in sports clubs, taught by highly trained professionals. 

• New P.E equipment and facilities within our playground to encourage children to be active during there break and lunchtimes. 

1. Number of pupils taking part in clubs:

• We have a large number of children taking advantage of the wide range of sports clubs on offer.

2. Adaptation of P.E curriculum

Miss Ryan's netball club - free.

 We meet two/three times a year at a network meeting where, recently, we have been sharing ideas about how best to use the sports premium money.
