PE and Sports Premium
PE and Sport Premium funding has been provided jointly by the Department for Education, the Department for Health and Culture and the Department for Media and Sport. It has been allocated to primary school Headteachers and is ring-fenced to be spent on the provision of PE and sport in schools. The Government believes that Headteachers and school leaders should decide how to use the funding for PE and Sports in school. They are held accountable for the decisions they make through:
- The performance outcomes of all pupils compared with their peers
- The Ofsted inspection framework, under which inspectors focus on the attainment of pupil groups, in particular in those areas where specific funding has been provided
- The reports that schools are required to publish online for Parents
In 2018-19 all primary schools received £16,000 plus an additional £10 per pupil aged 5 or over on roll, over two payments. Here at Dunston Hill Community Primary School we aim to use the funding effectively to ensure that standards of learning and achievement in PE and Sports are raised for all children, regardless of their background, enabling them to engage in physical activity as part of the curriculum and extra-curricular provision.

Gateshead School Sport Partnership
Dunston Hill continues to buy into the Gateshead School Sport Partnership at premium service level. This provides our children with access to a wide range of intra-school games competitions and festivals. The Partnership enables Dunston Hill Community Primary to actively engage with other Gateshead schools and involves our children participating in a range of disciplines and activities from Reception to Year 6: including Change4Life, cross country, dance, girls’ football, Hi5 netball, Kwik cricket, mini-basketball, multi-skills, rounders, Quadkids athletics, sports hall athletics, swimming etc. The agreement also includes staff training and network meetings for our PE subject leader, Mrs G Broadbent.
