Each school will receive approximately £16 000 which was increased using the sugar tax the government imposed last year.

5. The profile of PE and sport being raised across the school as a tool for whole school improvement

PE is at the heart of health and mental well-being. We are ensuring that PE remains important and that children in our school are as active as possible.

Ways we are doing this:

• PE session planned and delivered using STEP principle
• Health and well-being promoted within school as a high priority. 
• Regular exercise throughout the day to promote a healthy lifestyle. This includes HIIT session, yoga, gross motor skill activities and more. 
• Competitions each half term for some children to attend.
