Sports & PE Funding
Heron Cross Primary School receives P.E. and sport premium funding based on the number of pupils in years 1 to 6 using data from the January school census.
It should be noted that, in addition to sports opportunities purchased for the children, Heron Cross Primary School also run several extra-curricular and lunchtime sports activities where no charge is made.
PE workshops are also held for parents throughout the School year.
Pupils take part in sports events and tournaments with other schools around the City.
Swimming (as part of the curriculum) is available for KS2 only in 10 week blocks. Dates and details are posted on Class Dojo so keep an eye out for event updates on there.
