Physical Education
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps her Department is taking to ensure that all school-age children have access to high quality physical education.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
The government is dedicated to increasing children's activity levels by protecting physical education (PE) time and supporting grassroots clubs to expand access to sports for all girls and boys. Through our independent, expert-led Curriculum and Assessment Review, we will seek to deliver a curriculum which is rich, broad and inclusive, ensuring all children and young people have the best start in life and have equal opportunities to participate in high quality PE, sports and physical activities.
Further information on budgets for the 2025/26 academic year will be shared in due course.
