PE and Sports Premium Funding

PE Website

At St Mary's CE Infant School we recognise the contribution of PE to the health and well-being of the children.

In addition, it is considered that an innovative and varied PE curriculum and extra-curricular opportunities have a positive influence on the concentration, attitude and academic achievement of all children.
