PE and Sport Premium

PE and Sports Premium 

At Perryfields Infant School we are dedicated to providing children with high quality teaching and competitive events.

We provide a wide variety of opportunities for pupils to become physically confident in a way which supports their health and fitness.

Throughout all age groups opportunities to compete in sport, both in and out of school, and other activities are offered to build character and help to embed values such as fairness and resect.

At Perryfields Infant School we work closely with the Chelmsford School Sports Partnership (please click here https://www.chelmsfordssp.com/  to view their website), DNA Group Fit and CMXSC Coaching Team to provide all pupils with a high-quality physical education curriculum, inspiring all to succeed and excel in competitive sport and other physically demanding activities.
