As announced by the Secretary of State for Education on 17 July, we will invest £100 million from the Soft Drinks Industry Levy in 2018-19 for healthy pupils\u2019 capital. The funding will improve school facilities to support a range of healthy pupils\u2019 activities, including PE and sports, after school activities and healthy eating. We are not planning to prescribe a particular amount of this funding to be used exclusively for PE, as we believe the investment should be informed by schools\u2019 local priorities across this wider range of healthy pupils\u2019 activities.<\/p>

In addition, we are doubling the Primary PE and School Sport Premium to £320m a year from September 2017 using revenue generated from the Soft Drinks Industry Levy.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1562", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Scarborough and Whitby"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Robert Goodwill"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-09-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-09-07T09:58:22.363Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Physical Education"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what funding will be allocated to PE out of the Healthy Pupil Capitals Programme in England and Wales for 2017 to 2022; what the source of these funds will be; and if she will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1576", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mark Pritchard"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "The Wrekin"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mark Pritchard"} ], "uin" : "6733"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/754615", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/754615/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

I am sorry, but the department does not currently collect data on the number of paid for school dinners.<\/p>
We do monitor take-up of benefit related free school meals (FSM) and universal infant free school meals (UIFSM) using information taken from the school census. The proportion of compulsory school age pupils claiming benefit related free school meals is 14%. The proportion of eligible infants (excluding those not already eligible for benefit-related FSM) taking a meal under the UIFSM policy is 85.9%.[1]<\/p>
