Netherhall Learning Campus Junior School

Sports Premium

The Government has given every Primary School funding to develop Physical Education and competitive sport.


  • At Netherhall Learning Campus Infant and Junior Schools we are using this funding to facilitate:

    • Employing specialist coaches to work alongside teachers in lessons to increase their subject knowledge and confidence in PE
    • Releasing the school PE Coordinators for professional development in PE and sport to then feedback to staff.
    • Providing quality-assured professional training for staff to raise their confidence and competence in teaching PE and sport.

    In addition, we have joined the Newsome School Sports Partnership for the following purposes:

    • To increase the amount of competitive sport in which our children participate
    • Increase pupils’ participation in national school games competitions,
    • Provide extra provision for children who are talented by selecting them for a Gifted and Talented academy where they will meet other talented pupils from the Huddersfield area.
    • To support the inclusion of those with special needs in sport.
    • Make links to other community sports providers.
    • Encourage our children to improve their leadership skills through sport
    • Develop additional clubs and activities for children, outside the curriculum

    This funding also supports providing an exciting range of after-school sport clubs run by staff and specialist coaches at both schools including:

    • Football
    • Cricket
    • Fencing
    • Games
    • Multiskills
    • Rugby
    • Streetdance
    • Athletics
    • Martial Arts
    • Multi Sports

    Other areas supported by the Sports Premium funding are:

    • Using the expertise of the PE teachers from the Netherhall Learning Campus High School to help primary staff improve their PE and sports provision.
    • Purchasing specialist equipment and teaching resources.

    At Netherhall Learning Campus we recognise the importance of fostering a love of sport and an active lifestyle from an early age. Our goal, with the support of this funding, is to provide for all our pupils a high quality PE provision within and outside curriculum time.
