At Florence Melly Community Primary School, we believe that physical education and sport play a crucial role in improving our pupils’ physical and mental wellbeing and lifestyle. We continue to offer a highly effective PE programme and build on the embedded sporting culture in our school through a well planned programme of action to promote participation, progress, achievement and enjoyment.

We are committed to:

  • making additional and sustained improvements to the quality of PE and sport in our school.
  • developing and adding to the PE and sport activities that we already offer.
  • building capacity and capability within the school to ensure that improvements made now will benefit pupils joining the school in future years.

At Florence Melly Community Primary School, we continue to see improvements in:

  • the engagement of all pupils in regular physical activity.
  • the raised profile of PE and Sport across the school, driving whole-school improvement.
  • increased confidence, knowledge and skills of staff in teaching PE and sport.
  • the broader experiences of a range of sports and activities offered to our pupils.
  • increased participation in competitive sport.

Our Swimming Data 2023/24

The percentage of our Year 6 cohort that could swim competently, confidently and proficiently over a distance of at least 25 metres – 68%.

The percentage of our Year 6 cohort that could use a range of strokes effectively (for example, front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke) – 50%.

The percentage of our Year 6 cohort that could perform safe self-rescue in different water-based situations – 65%. 

If a school’s swimming data is below national expectation, they choose to use the Primary PE and sport premium to provide additional top-up sessions for those pupils that did not meet National Curriculum requirements after the completion of core lessons. Additional top-up lessons were provided to pupils in Year 6 in 2023/24.
