PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(11 June 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what plans her Department has to cover costs to schools for Sports and PE funding between July 2025 and October 2025.

Asked by:
John Milne (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

The physical education (PE) and sport premium helps all eligible primary schools to make additional and sustainable improvements to the PE, sport and physical activity they provide. Schools can decide how to use it, in line with the conditions of the grant. It does not fund specific provision.

The government has provided £320 million of funding for the primary PE and sport premium in this academic year and has recently committed to continuing this level of funding for the 2025/26 academic year. As in previous years, the funding will be provided in two payments, in the autumn and spring terms.
