PE AND SPORTS GRANT
Children at All Saints’ CE Primary School are fortunate to have an excellent PE curriculum and also access to many activities, which are above and beyond those offered by many primary schools. Through external funding, children have experienced for example: kayaking, canoeing, ghyll scrambling and orienteering amongst other outdoor pursuits.
The children begin swimming lessons at school in Year 2 and each year continue to swim for 1 term in Years 2, 5 and 6 and 2 terms in Years 3 and 4.
We, as a school, are keen to fully utilise our PE-specific budget to enhance both the enjoyment and also skill levels of our pupils through sport. The grant will be utilised in several ways to help promote a more active lifestyle by providing greater opportunities.
- We will use Sports Coaches to work with children both in and outside curriculum time with the aim to develop CPD and sustainability through increasing staff pedagogy.
- We have used: Dance, Multi-Skills, Cricket and Tennis coaches to develop pupil skills from Reception up to Year 6.
- We are part of the Cockermouth cluster and take part in sporting festivals throughout the year.
- We have level A, B and C competitions to ensure a range of children with different abilities have the opportunity to represent the school.
- Alongside the above competitions we aim to increase participation of the less active children in a sustainable way for the future through targeted clubs and club links.
- Our Year 6 pupils undergo Sports Leadership Workshops, which promotes more active lunch times, with activities run by our sport leaders.
- As part of our 30/30 commitments each year group completes run/activities at different times throughout the day.
- Our Key Stage 2 pupils experience canoeing, kayaking and ghyll scrambling and always take part in the orienteering events. This year we were overall winners of the Allerdale Orienteering Large Primary School.
In addition, we participate in festivals run by Wright Sports Services and local sport clubs, which in turn supports the local sporting community, enhancing club links.
School Games
We are one of 35,500 schools registered with ‘School Games’. As part of our registration we run an annual ‘Sports Day’ either at the Copeland Athletic Stadium, or a traditional ‘Sports Day’ on the playing field.
Extra-Curricular
School staff devote their time to leading Extra-Curricular clubs dedicated to sport. Throughout the year we offer: Sports Club (KS1), Football (KS2), Tag Rugby (KS2), Orienteering, and Cricket. On top of this, several staff members give up their own time at weekends and evenings to supervise sports teams taking part in competitions. Over 85% of children in KS2 and over 60% of children in KS1 partake in school-organised Extra-Curricular Activities at All Saints’ CE Primary School throughout the year.
