Sports Premium Funding
SPORTS FUNDING
- We are using the Sport Premium to improve the quality of PE and Sport provision in the following ways.
- We use the funding to support regular sport tournaments, festivals and competitions for pupils of all ages. We continue to be a part of our Local Sports Partnership which has given our pupils the opportunity to participate in a range of sporting activities and competitions.
- We invest in high quality CPD for staff to ensure children receive a high level of teaching throughout their time at Valley Road Academy.
- We invest in high-quality visiting sports coaches to run clubs, competitions, and to increase pupils’ participation in in-school and inter-school games competitions. We provide after-school sport clubs.
- We work with Farringdon Academy, The Tennis Centre, AP coaching, Raich Carter coaches and Active Families North East to provide high-quality coaching in a range of sports.
- Our different sports clubs are lots of fun and we try to provide signposting to clubs outside of school to develop these skills further.
- Our Key Stage 2 children swim at the Raich Carter Centre. We greatly value this, because not only does it provide us with access to high-quality swimming facilities but teaches children a vital life skill.
- Year 5 and 6 children take part in military bootcamp at East Durham Fitness Centre. Not only does this improve their fitness it also gives them opportunities to try more adventurous sports.
