The update to the School Sport and Activity Action Plan will be published this summer and will build on the Government’s Physical Education (PE) and School Sport announcement on 8 March 2023. This confirmed funding for the PE and Sport Premium and School Games Organisers for an additional two academic years.

The Action Plan has been informed by data collected from over 100,000 pupils and young people annually through the Sport England’s Active Lives Survey. This survey collects data on pupils' behaviours and attitudes to sport and physical activity. The Department has also worked with a wide range of sector organisations and schools who share insight from teachers, parents, and pupils.
