PE & Sports Premium 2024 - 2025
Reflection on the previous year
| What went well? | How do we know? | What didn’t go well? | How do we know |
| Up to date equipment meant pupils were able to participate in a varied mix of sporting activities.
An outdoor purpose built play area fit for purpose for our pupils
|
More participation in PE and sports.
More opportunities to offer pupils
Outdoor play area fit for purpose, secure and interactive. |
The increase in numbers of younger pupils meant space became an issue.
Our younger pupils did not have the opportunity to have their own Talbot House games day or sports days, this was because they could not manage the larger space of a sports centre and the resources they had. Many of our new pupils would benefit from rebound therapy. However, we do not have the facilities to do this. |
We attempted to take the younger children to the local sports venue; unfortunately, the large open space was not fit for purpose for the pupils, and we had to bring them back to school.
Rebound therapy is a well-known intervention that many of our younger pupils would benefit from. |
Intended Actions for 2024-2025
| Our plans for 2024/25 | How we will action and achieve these plans |
| Intent | Implementation |
| A safe area on school grounds for our younger pupils to confidently carry out PE lessons, sports days and other sporting activities.
Introduce rebound therapy
Improve/update our equipment used for PE and sport.
Investigate more therapeutic activities, such as gymnastics, swimming and other therapeutic |
Carry out a feasibility study on our 8 acres of land to see if we have the capacity to purpose design and construct an area for our younger pupils to have their own area to do sports on site.
Investigate what training and equipment is required to introduce rebound therapy. Identify staff to train.
Pastoral team to look at off site venue.
|
Expected impact and sustainability will be achieved
| Impact/intended impact/sustainability we are expecting | How we will know and the evidence we expect to have |
| Having an area on site means that our younger pupils can be offered the same opportunities as the older pupils.
Less transition time.
Avoids bus journeys and costs.
On site rebound therapy means quick, easy access to a resource that supports pupils’ wellbeing.
Appropriate equipment to enable more opportunities for our younger pupils. |
Reduction in overall costs, petrol, venue fees, and time.
More time on the activity rather than travel and transitioning.
|
Actual impact/sustainability and supporting evidence
| Impact/sustainability we have seen | Evidence |
|
A purpose build area for smaller, complex, and vulnerable pupils will mean longevity and more opportunities.
|
School budgets Less disruption Reduction in dysregulation.
