The conditions of the funding are clear; it must be spent on improving the provision of Physical Education (PE) and sport for the benefit of pupils so that they develop healthy lifestyles. All schools must abide by the conditions of the funding. Schools should publish on their website: the amount of grant received, how it has been spent (or will be spent) and what impact the school has seen on pupils\u2019 PE and sport participation and attainment as a result.<\/p>
<\/p>
Schools are held accountable for how they spend their funding through Ofsted whole-school inspections. Ofsted have strengthened the coverage of PE and sport in their Inspection Handbook. Inspectors assess and report on how effectively the funding is being used to improve PE and sport provision when making a judgement on the quality of the school\u2019s leadership and management.<\/p>

Swimming is part of the national curriculum, and all pupils must be taught to swim at least 25 metres unaided and be able to use recognised swimming strokes by the end of key stage 2 (age 11). It remains compulsory in the national curriculum following the curriculum review.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government has committed over £450 million of ring-fenced funding up to and including 2015/16 for primary schools to improve their provision of Physical Education and sport. Schools have the freedom to use the funding for additional provision for swimming but this must be for activity over and above the national curriculum requirements.<\/p>
