What has been the effect of Sports Premium Funding on pupils’ participation and attainment?
With the support of our dedicated staff, pupils are enjoying a wider variety of activities and we are seeing an increase in the number of pupils opting for after-school sports clubs. Using industry professional and coaches to introduce new activities to our pupils has given them an insight into high level performance and the enthusiasm for sport is obvious as obvious in PE lessons as it is during ‘house’ tournaments.
How will we make these improvement sustainable?
We consistently strive to improve opportunities for our pupils. Where an activity proves popular, we make every effort to provide additional resources (more staff, extra clubs) so that all pupils can take part. In addition, we are always looking for fresh challenges to engage and excite the children at Penpol. These challenges might include surfing, golf, tennis, street dance, gymnastics and sports tournaments.
