Inspecting Primary School PE and School Sport: New Funding

• In April 2013, the Government announced new funding of £150 million for physical education and sport. This funding should be used to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision.

• Funding will be allocated to all maintained and state-funded schools with primary phase pupils, including: primary, middle, special and non-maintained special schools, academies and pupil referral units from 1 September 2013. A typical primary school will receive about £9,250 annually in the academic years 2013/14 and 2014/15.

Primary School Sport Funding 2013 - 2015

• Funding for schools will be calculated by the number of primary-aged pupils (between the ages of 5 and 11) as at the annual schools census in January 2013.

• All schools with 17 or more primary-aged pupils will receive a lump sum of £8000 plus a premium of £5 per pupil. Smaller schools will receive £500 per pupil.

Primary School Sport Funding 2013 - 2015

How the funding will be paid:

• For 2013/14 and 2014/15 the sport funding will be included in the additional grant for schools (AGS) 2013-14 and 2014-15. AGS is distributed to local authorities in late September or early October each year.

• The payments will cover the total funding for the academic years 1 September 2013 to 31 August 2014 and 1 September 2014 to 31 August 2015.  The allocations for each eligible school in the authority will be set out in a spreadsheet that will accompany the note on the conditions of grant for the initiatives being supported by the AGS.

• Academies will receive their AGS directly from the Education Funding Agency (EFA).

• Eligible special schools will receive their funding directly from the Department’s special education needs and disability division.

Ofsted: Inspecting Primary School PE and School Sport: New Funding

• Schools are free to determine how best to use this funding to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision, including increasing participation in PE and sport so that all pupils develop healthy lifestyles and reach the performance levels they are capable of. Examples of how this funding might be spent are set out in annex A of the' Briefing for Section 5 Inspection' guidance.

Annex A

• See Handout

Ofsted – 2013 Handbook• In primary schools, how increasing

participation in PE and sport is helping all pupils develop healthy lifestyles and reach the performance levels they are capable of

• How well the school uses the new primary school sport funding to improve the quality and breadth of PE and sport provision, including increasing participation in PE and sport so that all pupils develop healthy lifestyles and reach the performance levels they are capable of

From the Inspector Briefing• From September 2013, inspectors will be asked where

possible to observe PE lessons or sports enrichment activities during section 5 inspections. They will make judgements about the quality of teaching and coaching, its impact on pupils' learning and progress, and on their behaviour.

• In meetings with the headteacher and with school governors, inspectors will ask for a brief evaluation of the quality of PE, pupils' participation in school sport and how they have used the new funding to make improvements.

• In meetings with pupils, inspectors will ask them their views about PE, about their participation in lunchtime and after-school sport and what else the school does to keep them healthy and active.

Ofsted Subsidiary GuidanceInspectors should consider the impact of the new primary school sport funding on pupils’ lifestyles and physical wellbeing by taking account of the following factors:

• the increase in participation rates in such activities as games, dance, gymnastics, swimming and athletics

• the increase and success in competitive school sports • how much more inclusive the physical education curriculum

has become • the growth in the range of provisional and alternative

sporting activities • the improvement in partnership work on physical education

with other schools and other local partners • links with other subjects that contribute to pupils’ overall

achievement and their greater social, spiritual, moral and cultural skills

• the greater awareness amongst pupils about the dangers of obesity, smoking and other such activities that undermine pupils’ health.

Ofsted Subsidiary Guidance

• Inspectors should meet with as many governors during an inspection as is possible, and should determine how well governing bodies evaluate the performance of the school, particularly in terms of: .......... the new primary school sport funding.

• Inspectors should also satisfy themselves that the governing body is ensuring that the school’s finances are properly managed, and investigate governors’ role in deciding how the school is using ........the new primary school sport funding.

Key Findings Primary Schools - Ofsted

• Achievement was good or outstanding in two thirds of schools visited. Boys and girls, disabled pupils and those with special educational needs made similar progress in PE.

• By the end of Key Stage 2, most pupils had achieved age-related expectations, including in swimming. However, a fifth of schools visited had not ensured that every pupil could swim 25 metres by the end of Year 6.

• Pupils’ achievement and enjoyment of school, including their personal development and well-being, were enhanced significantly by opportunities to train as playground buddies and junior sports leaders.

Key Findings Primary Schools - Ofsted• Teaching was good or outstanding in more than two

thirds of schools visited. None of the schools visited had inadequate teaching. Where it required improvement, the main weaknesses were the teachers’ limited subject knowledge and use of assessment which led to superficial planning and insufficient challenge, particularly for the more able pupils.

• In a quarter of schools, pupils were not challenged to improve their personal fitness sufficiently. Warm-ups were too short and too easy, and were often followed by long periods of inactivity as teachers introduced the lesson. Only a few schools had adapted PE programmes to suit the individual needs of obese pupils, or engaged with health agencies, parents and carers to improve the lifestyle of these pupils.

Key Findings Primary Schools - Ofsted

• The quality of the PE curriculum was good or outstanding in over three quarters of schools visited. Most schools provided two hours of PE each week and have enhanced their provision to achieve a good balance of games, gymnastics, swimming, dance and athletic activities. They provided a wide range of after-school clubs and inter-school competitions.

• Since September 2012, inspection judgements that are not good (grade 2) have been judged to require improvement (grade 3). For reasons of consistency, all grade 3 inspection judgements in this survey are referred to as ‘requires improvement’.

• Two hours of PE and school sport each week was an aspirational target for schools introduced by the previous government. There is no statutory requirement for schools to devote a specific amount of time to PE.

Key Stage 1 (from September 2014)

Pupils should develop fundamental movement skills, become increasingly competent and confident and access a broad range of opportunities to extend their agility, balance and coordination, individually and with others. They should be able to engage in competitive (both against self and against others) and co-operative physical activities, in a range of increasingly challenging situations.

Pupils should be taught to:• master basic movements including running, jumping, throwing and catching, as well as developing balance, agility and co-ordination, and begin to apply these in a range of activities• participate in team games, developing simple tactics for attacking and defending • perform dances using simple movement patterns.

Key Stage 2 (from September 2014)

Pupils should continue to apply and develop a broader range of skills, learning how to use them in different ways and to link them to make actions and sequences of movement. They should enjoy communicating, collaborating and competing with each other. They should develop an understanding of how to improve in different physical activities and sports and learn how to evaluate and recognise their own success.

Pupils should be taught to:• use running, jumping, throwing and catching in isolation and in combination• play competitive games, modified where appropriate [for example, badminton, basketball, cricket, football, hockey, netball, rounders and tennis], and apply basic principles suitable for attacking and defending• develop flexibility, strength, technique, control and balance [for example, through athletics and gymnastics]• perform dances using a range of movement patterns• take part in outdoor and adventurous activity challenges both individually and within a team• compare their performances with previous ones and demonstrate improvement to achieve their personal best.

Promoting Best Practice: Examples

• Share expertise through networking with fellow subject leaders• Aim to visit other schools so that you can gain an insight into the

quality of their provision. Surf their websites for ideas• Ensure that all teaching staff have a sound knowledge and

application of your school’s PE schemes of work and any bought-in lesson plans

• Audit the needs of your staff to take advantage of Inset opportunities• Keep reinforcing the Olympic & Paralympic values as the bedrock to

your school’s learning ethos• Liaise with your pupils so as to glean what they think of the PE

lessons-Ofsted will!• Ensure that any community club coaches whom you employ are all

quality assured (CRB; Insurance; Qualified) Are they aware of DfE & Ofsted expectations? It is about supporting them to become teachers as well coaches-how do you quality-assure their work?

• Address playtime/lunchtime provision e.g. HQ Play Leaders Scheme (Intra Comp)

• Address high quality provision for the semi/non sporty as well as those who are gifted and talented

• Promote and celebrate your hard work and achievements via your school’s website=a powerful marketing tool

Targets: Ofsted Subsidiary Guidance Inspectors should consider the impact of the new primary school sport

funding on pupils’ lifestyles and physical wellbeing by taking account of the following factors:

• the increase and success in competitive school sports Intra as well as Inter• how much more inclusive the physical education curriculum has become Sport

for all irrespective of gender, ethnicity, ability etc. What strategies does your school employ?

• the growth in the range of provisional and alternative sporting activities Minority sports can provide the gateway to PE & Sport as well as other subject learning. Do you incorporate minority sports into extra-curricular provision?

• the improvement in partnership work on physical education with other schools and other local partners Academy cluster/ regional groups; local partnership package

• links with other subjects that contribute to pupils’ overall achievement and their greater social, spiritual, moral and cultural skills Promoting whole child development that can affect whole school improvement e.g.behaviour; attainment; achievement; community profile etc

• the greater awareness amongst pupils about the dangers of obesity, smoking and other such activities that undermine pupils’ health. Working, practical links with PHSE. Cross-curricular learning opportunities that impact upon promoting healthy lifestyles and ultimately tomorrow’s workforce
