Vision Statement: Participate, Perform, Progress

At Parkwall, we recognise the vital role physical education and sport play in supporting the health, wellbeing, and development of our pupils. We are proud to serve a diverse community, and we use Sport Premium funding to remove barriers so every child can thrive. Our investment in PE and Sport is particularly important for our pupils, some of whom face additional challenges beyond the classroom.

Our Spending Priorities

In 2024–25, our funding was invested across two main areas:

• Staff Development (CPD): £11,924
  • Inter-school development and collaboration opportunities
  • Internal training to build staff expertise
  • Use of external coaches to increase staff confidence and competence in delivering high-quality PE
• Pupil Opportunities and Resources: £7,160
  • A broad range of extra-curricular sporting activities accessible to all pupils
  • Investment in sports equipment to enhance PE provision and widen participation

Total PE and Sport Premium spent: £19,085

Impact on Pupils and the School Community

• Increased Participation: Funding has enabled us to provide inclusive extra-curricular opportunities, ensuring pupils can engage in sports that may otherwise be inaccessible to some.
• Improved Staff Expertise: Targeted CPD has strengthened the quality of teaching in PE, equipping staff with skills and confidence that benefit every child.
• Enhanced Provision: Investment in equipment has allowed us to broaden our curriculum and improve the experiences available to pupils across year groups.
• Wellbeing and Aspiration: In a community where opportunities can be limited, sport provides a powerful route for pupils to develop resilience, teamwork, and aspiration—skills that impact positively on learning and life beyond school.

Our Commitment Going Forward

We remain committed to using Sport Premium funding not only to meet national expectations but also to break down inequalities. By continuing to invest in both staff and pupils, we will ensure that sport is a driver for inclusion, wellbeing, and achievement across our school community.
