How is the Sports Premium funding deployed at North Mymms St Mary's?
We believe that every pupil is entitled to be healthy and to learn key skills to prepare them for competitive and healthy sports later in life. We also believe in building team spirit and promoting positive behaviour through physical play. Finally, we want to develop sporting habits in school which are easy for pupils to enjoy out of school – inexpensive, not resource or equipment intensive and possible to do anywhere, anytime alone or with friends. Please see the attached document for detailed information about how we are spending the money this year:
