PE and Funding

The government provides primary schools with additional funding to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding is provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport.  

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.

You can see details of how we are spending our additional funding and the impact it is having below:
