 Langton Primary School Sport Funding

The government is providing additional funding of £150 million per annum until 2020 to improve provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. This funding - provided jointly by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture, Media and Sport - will be allocated to primary school Headteachers.

Schools must use the funding to make additional and sustainable improvements to the quality of PE and sport they offer.

At Langton Primary School, we understand the importance of high quality PE and sport provision. We believe this can deliver huge benefits in terms of enhanced cognitive function, improved classroom behaviour and consequently enhances academic performance.

Safeguarding Statement

We are committed to ensuring the welfare and safety of all children in school. All North Yorkshire schools, including Langton Primary School, follow the North Yorkshire Safeguarding Children Board procedures. The school will, in most circumstances, endeavour to discuss all concerns with parents about their child/ren.  However, there may be exceptional circumstances when the school will discuss concerns with Social Care and/or the Police without parental knowledge (in accordance with Child Protection procedures).  The school will, of course, always aim to maintain a positive relationship with all parents.  The school child protection policy is available on request from school or can be viewed below:

Langton Primary School Child Protection Policy

School is committed to Safeguarding and Promoting the Welfare of all of its pupils. Each pupil’s welfare is of paramount importance. We recognise that some children may be especially vulnerable to abuse e.g. those with Special Educational Needs, those living in adverse circumstances. We recognise that children who are abused or neglected may find it difficult to develop a sense of self-worth and to view the world positively. Whilst at school, their behaviour may be challenging. We recognise that some children who have experienced abuse may harm others. We will always take a considered and sensitive approach in order that we can support all of our pupils.
