DfE confirms Primary PE Premium for 2019-20

The Department for Education has today confirmed to us that it will fund the Primary PE and Sport Premium for the 2019/20 academic year.

A total of £320 million will again be made available to primary schools in England to improve the quality of PE and sport.

It is expected that further details will be published by the department soon.

With a School Sport Action Plan due to be published by government soon, we look forward to seeing a more long-term, joined up approach which reverses cuts to PE and maximises the potential of sport and play to improve children’s wellbeing and life chances.
