Ready to Teach, Ready to Learn
We have won the School Games Gold Award for the 5th year running.
“After exercise, a child’s ability to sort out priorities improves, allowing them to block out distractions and better concentrate on the task at hand.
Their brain remembers more when their body is active. Put simply, increased physical activity in schools increases concentration levels in children which will help them perform better academically.”This is why at Rift House Primary School we are an active school!
At Rift House Primary School we want every child to have:
Within our school, we are focusing on promoting health and well being of our pupils, staff and the wider community by encouraging healthy and active lifestyle opportunities. At Rift House School we offer 2 hours PE lessons and lots of opportunities for competitive sports outside of the school curriculum. All children have the opportunity to attend after school clubs, as well as the many intra school competitions at break times and lunch times and energisers within the classroom throughout the day. This is to ensure that all pupils are physically active for at least thirty minutes during every school day which is in line with the governments 30:30 policy.
Whole school energisers enjoyed by children and staff.
We have been working with Tees Valley Sport on a project both in school and out. Funding has been used for staff training and our CHOICES Diaries. They also produced these promotional posters.
Primary PE and Sport Funding
The Government introduced Sport Funding in 2013 to raise pupil participation in sport related activities on the back of the success of the 2012 Olympic Games.
The government is providing additional funding of £150 million to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools
This ‘legacy’ funding is intended to open up new avenues of sporting activity to young people, be it taking up a new sport never previously experienced or investing in the professional development of staff to develop new PE related initiatives in school. This funding is ring fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.
Rift House Primary School will receive £17810 for their PE & Sports Grant (2019).
Rift House Primary School is a part of the School Games network. We have held the GOLD standard for the last 5 years. The values of the games is very similar to our school values CHOICES.
At Rift House Primary School we follow the School Games Values. Rift House School Sports Values:
Passion,
Self-belief,
Respect, Honesty
Teamwork and Determination
These values help children to develop in all areas of sport and as part of a lifelong passion. The aim of these values is to encourage resilience and hard work which is also part of our own school values. By giving the opportunity for our children to develop these values there is a wide range of positive effects on behaviour and attendance.
