This funding is being jointly provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport, and will see money going directly to schools to be spent on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.

This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision for PE and sport in schools. We will be held accountable for how we have used the additional funding to support pupils progress and participation in PE and school sport.

Our successful football team…..
In October 2015 we were nominated for the EVERYBODY SCHOOL OF THE YEAR 2015 within Cheshire East.

Still a huge achievement out of 134 primary schools and 56 secondary schools in Cheshire East. Well done to everyone!
