Inclusive PE and School Sport – Grant Opportunity

The Department for Education (DfE) is making grant funding available to kick-start or develop an existing programme that supports inclusion in PE and school sport.

The DfE wants to ensure that all children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) have equal access to PE and sport. The successful bid will deliver a programme that will support pupils with SEN and disabilities to increase their engagement in PE, sport and physical activities. The DfE would expect to see a clear plan for how this will be achieved, which should be based on evidence and include measureable outcomes.

Bids should cover the elements of a delivery plan for how the programme will improve and extend the quality of schools’ PE and sports provision and teaching, how pupils will be supported to increase their engagement and participation in PE, sport and physical activities (both in and outside of school), and what the measurable impact on the pupils will be. The delivery plan should include details of key outputs and milestones.
