Sports Premium

As part of the legacy of the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics, schools in Britain have received substantial funding. At Green Haworth, we will be using this funding for the following purposes:

To give our children free access to a wide range of sports and healthy activities through P.E and after-school clubs.
To provide county-wide competition in a range of sports.
To ensure that children of all ages experience competition against other schools in the borough.
To utilise high-quality facilities that we would not normally be able to access.
To train staff to a high level of coaching so there is sustainability beyond having access to Legacy funding.
To help children make positive decisions regarding healthy lifestyles.

All young people should have the opportunity to live healthy and active lives. A positive experience of sport and physical activity at a young age can build a lifetime habit of participation and is central to meeting the government’s ambitions for a world-class education system.

Physical activity has numerous benefits for children and young people’s physical health, as well as their mental wellbeing (increasing self-esteem and emotional wellbeing and lowering anxiety and depression), and children who are physically active are happier, more resilient and more trusting of their peers. Ensuring that pupils have access to sufficient daily activity can also have wider benefits for pupils and schools, improving behaviour as well as enhancing academic achievement.

A number of key principles underpin our use of Pupil Premium

The funding is always spent on the target group of children.
Eligibility for pupil premium is not confused with low ability. We focus on supporting our disadvantaged children to achieve the highest levels.
We carefully analyse which children underachieve and why.
The children eligible for pupil premium are taught by experienced and effective teachers and Higher Level Teaching staff (within intervention) and supported by skilled teaching assistants.
We use achievement data frequently to monitor the progress of all children. We check whether pupil premium interventions are working and to see the difference the funding is making to outcomes for children.

Outdoor education

All Green Haworth children (R-Y6) attend a half-term of Forest School learning. This sets learning in a different context for children where they can undertake a range of practical activities and carry out small achievable tasks. At Forest School children can develop their team working skills and also learn to become more independent. Those who are unfamiliar with woodlands and green spaces can become confident in using them and this can form the basis of a life-long relationship with natural spaces.

Children are stimulated by the outdoors and typically experience, over time, an increase in their self-belief, confidence, learning capacity, enthusiasm, communication and problem-solving skills and emotional well-being.

£2,471

Green Haworth regularly attend the Sainsbury's School Sports Games events organised by Accrington Academy. Recently the Year 3 and 4 football team was very successful coming third in their competition and receiving these great medals! WELL DONE!

Small Schools Indoor Athletics Champions!

A team of Year 5 and 6 boys have recently won the Small Schools Indoor Athletics which took place at Hyndburn Leisure Centre. The competition consisted of several sprint relays, long jump, vertical standing jump and javelin. The boys performed particularly well in the sprints and, as you can see from the photos, thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Children from Class 1 had the opportunity to attend a 'Curling event' at Accrington Academy last night. The four children that were chosen made it to the semi-finals. They behaved impeccably and really enjoyed themselves. Well done, Violet, Caden, Shabaz and Archie! :)
