Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much funding the Government plans to allocate to the PE and Sport Premium in (a) 2017-18, (b) 2018-19, (c) 2019-20, (d) 2020-21, (e) 2021-22, and (f) 2022-23.
We want all pupils to be healthy and active. This is why since 2013 the government has invested over £600 million of ring-fenced funding to primary schools to improve PE through the Primary PE and Sport Premium.
The Department for Education and the Department of Health contribute £100 million and £60 million per year to the premium respectively, with the Soft Drinks Levy funding contributing £415 million over the remainder of the current spending review period (see attached table).
Funding for 2020-21 onwards will be considered at the next Spending Review.
