We provide a range of sporting opportunities for the children at George Grenville Academy.
The Sports Premium Funding we receive has enabled us to provide all children, including those in the nursery, with 2 hours of quality sport each week. This is provided by sports coaches who specialise in the teaching of PE, dance and games. The pupils at Grenville also receive swimming coaching during each year of KS2. (Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6) This ensures that the skills they enquire are continuously built on and improvements are sustained. These swimming skills, along with sportsmanship and teamwork are all long term, life skills that the children of Grenville develop fully throughout their education at our primary school.
The funding also enables us to provide after school and lunchtime clubs which include a different sporting opportunity every day. These are seasonal and include dance, gymnastics, cricket, hockey, football, netball, tag rugby, multi-skills, badminton and dodgeball.
We are proud to be part of the Buckingham School Sports Partnership. In the past, we were awarded a special prize for small school achiever of the year' award as all children have access to quality sports provision. Last year we entered every single competitive event offered by the sports partnership and we continue to work towards this goal in 2019/2020.
At playtimes and lunchtimes we are lucky to have a trained sports coach within our staff who works with the children to promote sport at lunchtime and prepares them for sporting competitions.
