Match-Funding submission is Friday 19th June - apply now!

Our partners Premier Sport have taken the popular decision to support schools again this year by re-opening the Match-Funding opportunity in the weeks leading up to the National School Sport Week (Mon 22 June - Fri 26 June). This means you will gain access to our popular nation initiative for less than £1.50 per child* for a whole year.

It takes less than one minute to apply!

The application process for your funding pot will be available until Friday 19th June only. Applicants are encouraged to apply at the earliest opportunity to avoid disappointment. The application process will remain open until then or as soon as the funding has been allocated.

*based on a class size of 30 pupils.

Assisting you with Ofsted accountability measures for the primary PE and sport funding

The Golden Mile is a perfect ALL inclusive initiative designed to engage even the most disengaged pupils to easily increase participation rates for your school, including virtual intra & inter competition.

Following the primary PE and sport funding, The Golden Mile is used by schools to provide impact measurements and to demonstrate the funding is spent effectively...

The impact of the funding will be considered in terms of:

Increased participation in competitive school sport
personal health and well-being
Improved attitudes and behaviour towards learning

“Inspectors must take account how increasing participation in PE and sport is helping all pupils develop healthy lifestyles and reach the performance levels they are capable of, when making judgements about the achievement of pupils at the school”

Via The Golden Mile data management system, activity levels can be monitored by viewing data graphs for individual pupils, classes and the whole school.

This week long initiative is the perfect excuse for your pupils to hit the Golden Mile track and clock up those miles...

Jeremy Hunt’s obesity pledge ‘misses the mark’

Health secretary Jeremy Hunt’s pledge to make addressing the “great scandal” of childhood obesity a top priority of this Parliament has been dismissed as ineffective by the boss of one of Britain’s top fitness companies.

In a speech to health leaders in central London this week, the health secretary said tackling childhood obesity would be one of his main aims, with a national strategy to be put in place as part of the Conservatives’ pledge for an extra £8bn a year in NHS funding by 2020. Currently one in five children leaving primary school is clinically obese, and Hunt is eager to impart a public health strategy that lightens the load on an overburdened NHS England – which still needs to find £22bn in efficiency savings to balance the books.
