Moorlands Primary School

Sports Premium

At Moorlands, we use the Sports Premium Funding to enhance the teaching and learning of the physical education curriculum, increase participation in P.E and sporting activities, develop our competitive sport program and build a love of being active which will stay with the children in future years.

We aim to create a healthy, happy school community who experience a range of physical activities both through the curriculum and our extracurricular activities. We are planning for the future, so invest a lot of the funding into external coaches who are experts in their field. This ensures the children experience high quality P.E. lessons in the present and future by upskilling staff, ensuring all our teachers are confident in delivering high quality P.E. lessons.

We also use some of the funding to employ a sports coach, who organises and runs our competitive and festival program and supports in P.E lessons.
