The PE and Sport Premium continues to provide funding to primary schools across the UK, ensuring that all children benefit from high-quality physical education and sport. In 2025, the funding remains pivotal in helping schools enhance their PE curriculum, improve physical activity levels, and develop the skills necessary for lifelong health and well-being.
This year, the PE and Sport Premium 2025 is designed to support schools in building strong foundations for long-term success in both health and education, ensuring that every child has access to the benefits of physical education, no matter their background or ability.
The PE and Sport Premium has 5 Key Indicators:

2. The Profile of PE and Sport is Raised Across the School
- Making physical education and sport a core part of the school culture. This includes highlighting achievements, providing leadership opportunities for students, and integrating physical education into school life to show its importance.
3. Increased Confidence, Knowledge, and Skills of All Staff in Teaching PE and Sport
- Providing professional development for teachers, teaching assistants, and sports coaches to improve their confidence and competence in delivering high-quality PE lessons. This can involve training, workshops, and collaboration with experts to raise teaching standards.
4. Broader Range of Sports and Activities Offered to All Pupils
- Expanding the range of sports and physical activities available, including non-traditional sports, to ensure every student has the opportunity to try new activities. This could involve partnerships with local clubs or offering a variety of extracurricular programs to cater to different interests.
5. Increased Participation in Competitive Sport
- Encouraging students to participate in local, regional, and national sports competitions. Schools should aim to develop pathways for students to take part in competitive sport, whether through school teams or other opportunities, to promote teamwork, sportsmanship, and healthy competition.
