Our School Vision
At Sholing Junior School, we aim to inspire all children to develop a love of physical activity and sport. Through good physical education, whole school values and a whole child approach, we aim to nurture confident, resilient children who will strive for their personal best. We listen to our children wants and needs and provide them with a range of active experiences and clubs.
We want to aid our children in obtaining the values and skills to celebrate and respect the success of others, as well as modestly celebrating their own successes. We aim to ensure that our delivery of physical education allows all children to have the skills and mindset to leave junior school with the capabilities to be successful in their sporting challenges and active lifestyles at secondary school and beyond.
We strive to educate both our children and families to develop a greater understanding on how to live healthy lifestyles and make healthy choices. We are dedicated to ensuring healthy minds, as well as bodies and will continue to support our children's well-being. We have strong links with local clubs and partnerships within our community to ensure the children and families receive the support and knowledge they need.
It is really important that all children are given the opportunity to excel in sports that they enjoy and also to try new sports. Therefore, within both your child's PE education and the extra curriculum provision at Sholing Junior School, your child is exposed to a full range of activities. We wanted to help in giving this opportunity to our pupils by putting together the following list of sports contacts that can be used to gain more information about sports clubs in the local area.
Southern Colts Academy
an inclusive football academy for ages U7-U14. We accept first time footballers, to those wanting to reach the very top. We are in constant discussions with Southampton FC regarding the watch of our players. We have already had one child move onto the Saints Academy after being with us for 1 year. Every child receives the same style of coaching and is there to learn and have fun. I believe this provides a great opportunity for those less able, as well as those wanting another night of training to improve.
Sholing Football Club
The club has been very successful in producing players through the ranks for the U23 & Youth Teams and some have gone on to play football at a higher level. All coaching is done to a high standard, within the guidelines of the Football Association (Sholing Youth FC is Accredited by the FA). Most of all, an emphasis is put on the enjoyment of the game and promotion of health & team spirit.
Southampton Hockey Club
Southampton Hockey Club recognises the importance of developing young hockey players. The Club looks to help develop junior skills and develop an understanding for the rules of hockey. However the most important aspect is that they have fun and enjoy the sport.
Dreams Netball Club
We are a well established local netball club in Southampton, Hampshire offering netball to all players irrespective of age and ability. We offer performance to grass root netball for both Seniors and Juniors, and Back to Netball. We have a variety of training sessions and teams for both Juniors and Seniors. Our Juniors range from age 4 to Under 18's and we have plenty of Senior teams in a variety of leagues. New players are always welcome to join us.

Background Information About the Funding
The government is providing additional funding to improve the provision of physical education (PE) and sport in primary schools. The premium is designed to help children get an active start in life, supporting primary schools to improve the quality of their PE, physical activity/literacy, and sport provision so that pupils experience the benefits of regular exercise.
This funding is ring-fenced and therefore can only be spent on provision of PE and sport in schools.
Eligible Schools
Funding for schools has been calculated by reference to the number of primary-aged pupils (between the ages of 5 and 11), as recorded in the annual schools census in January.
Purpose of Funding
Schools must spend the additional funding on improving their provision of PE and sport, but they will have the freedom to choose how they do this.
