PE and Sports Funding

Benefits of Funding

1. Increasing Participation

The funding has allowed a significant improvement in the amount and variety of extra-curricular clubs offered to the children. This has enabled more children to achieve their target of five hours physical activity per week.

2. Improving Achievement in Competitive Sport

During Enrichment time (Friday afternoon) support from premier sports’ coaches has allowed further development of achievements in individual sports and basic skills e.g. tennis, athletics, skipping, throwing etc. Some of this time has been allocated to preparing teams for festivals and tournaments where the success of St Mark’s School has reached an all-time high.  This can partly be accredited to Enrichment time.

3. Better Curriculum Delivery for children

Coaches and specialists have also been used in curriculum time – increasing the ratio of adults to children (often 1:15 rather than the traditional 1:30). Smaller groups mean children receive greater feedback, are able to focus better and learn from the knowledge and experience of other staff members.

4. Improving Resources – replacing, additional etc

St Mark’s has provided new and more varied resources. Better facilities, equipment and teaching aids have enabled the school to deliver a stimulating, challenging and enjoyable curriculum to the children, who have an extremely positive attitude towards physical education.

5. Raising the profile of sport and improving achievement within school

Developing meaningful competitions has been proven to raise standards. Our school is committed to developing its internal house competitions and has begun the process of raising the profile and range offered. Participation has increased across all year groups.
