Linden Bridge School
Pupil Premium and PE Philosophy
Please read the information below which gives details of our Pupil Premium Grant and PE Philosophy and how we allocate the funding to ensure positive outcomes and opportunities for all our pupils.
Pupil Premium Strategy
At Linden Bridge School we are committed to ensuring that each individual pupil receives the very best education allowing them to reach the Linden Bridge School learning aims.
The funding received through Pupil Premium is carefully ring-fenced so that it is spent on a targeted group of students, to ensure that no pupil is disadvantaged.
Funding is allocated to activities that have research-based evidence to work and to develop social capital for our young people. All teachers and support staff know which students are eligible for Pupil Premium and take responsibility for implementing strategies to accelerate their progress. Teachers are accountable for the progress of these students. Through careful monitoring and evaluation we can show the positive impact of our spending on the outcomes for students.

PE
Our philosophy at Linden Bridge is focused around the 5 components; body image, posture, motor coordination, muscular fitness and cardiovascular fitness. These 5 components are the building blocks for a successful life engaged in physical activity. It is crucial to teach core skills before being engaged in team games and competitive sport. Linden Bridge PE Premium focuses on these core skills to provide pupils with the knowledge, skills and motivation necessary to equip them for a healthy, active lifestyles and lifelong participation in physical activity.
