DfE updates School Sport and Activity Action Plan

Article summary

The Department for Education (Dfe) has updated the School Sport and Activity Action Plan on 19 July 2023. The updated Plan sets out the government’s vision for Primary Physical Education (PE) and Sport Premium funding over the next two years. The Plan also includes updates as to the actions taken since the release of the original 2019 Plan. The government has said that the plan aims to improve the quality of PE and sport, encouraging two hours of PE during the school week, and ensure equal access to sports for all school children. Alongside the Plan, the government has also committed to publishing further non-statutory guidance later in 2023 to support schools.
