How ready is your school for the future of Primary PE?

A free, 10-minute self-review of your PE, school sport and physical activity provision.

Primary PE is changing. The PE and Sport Premium is ending, with 2026/27 a transition year before the new PE and School Sport Partnerships Network begins and the national curriculum is being revised for first teaching in September 2028.

The Primary PE Benchmark gives you a clear picture of where your school is now. You’ll see your strengths, the areas to develop and practical next steps, built around high-quality PE and developing the whole child.

It’s completely FREE!

How it works:

Step 1: Answer the questions

Choose the statement that best describes your school across 32 questions. It takes about 10 minutes. Answer for how things are now, not how you’d like them to be.

Step 2: Recieve your results

Get your score instantly and by email, with a breakdown across five areas of PE, school sport and physical activity.

Step 3: See where you stand

See whether each area is a Priority, Building or a Strength, and find your strongest and weakest areas.

Step 4: Take action

Use your tailored next steps to plan for the changes ahead. Want to talk it through? Book a free 15-minute consultation.

“The Benchmark helped me as a new PE lead, decide on what my next steps should be. It also helped me consider the school as a whole and think about areas such as curriculum planning. I was able to speak about aspects of PE leadership that I wasn’t so sure on and I was given advice and also sent resources.”

"The Benchmark has been a really useful tool to identify areas for improvement and it was also really good to highlight what we are doing well too! I have been able to make a really clear action plan to make improvements in our provision. Speaking with Abbie after completeing the Benchmark was really useful to bounce ideas off of and she was really knowledgeable!"
