Sports funding
Sports Funding:
At St John’s we recognise that 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.
We are committed to ensure that all pupils have the most qualified teachers and instructors during their P.E. lessons. Through the sports funding provided by the government we have been able to expand our excellent sport provision with extra enrichment opportunities for all year groups.
