This government values PE and sport as a great opportunity to improve not only the health but also the wellbeing and lives of children and young people.

The government has confirmed funding for the School Games Organisers (SGO) network for the 2026/27 financial year. The commitment of further funding recognises the value of the SGO Network’s expertise and support, which will be vital as we move towards delivery of new Physical Education and School Sport Partnerships Network. Further details on the PE and School Sports Partnerships will be confirmed in due course.
