Sports Funding Allocation

 
Primary School PE and Sport Funding
What is it?
The government is providing additional funding to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools. Schools must spend the additional funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.

Bishop Lonsdale received £8,815 for 2016/17 and £18,000 for 2017/18. After careful consideration by the Governing Body it was decided that the money is to be used as outlined above:-
 
What do we spend the additional funding on at Bishop Lonsdale Primary School?
