What is the Primary PE & Sport Premium?
The Government invests £320m per year directly into primary schools with the objective of achieving self-sustaining improvement in the quality of PE and sport. The average school receives approximately £18k across the academic year - West Chilt receives approximately £17,000.
This funding is called the Primary PE & Sport Premium (PPSP). Please click HERE to view our Sports Premium Action Plan for 2021-2022
The long term vision of the funding is that “all pupils leave primary school physically literate and with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy lifestyle and lifelong participation in physical activity and sport”.
Swimming
Every year we give one year group the opportunity to have a block of professionally coached swimming lessons in Storrington School's pool. This acadmeic year 2022-23 we aim to increase this offer to two year groups to ensure that lost opportunitues during the pandemic don't compromise children's chances to develop key physical skills.
