Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what additional funding her Department has made available or plans to make available to secondary schools to increase the range of activities offered to pupils outside the school day; and whether any funding was provided for that purpose from the soft drinks industry levy.

£100 million of funding from the soft drinks industry levy in 2018-19 will be provided for the healthy pupils’ capital fund. This funding will be made available to improve school facilities to support a range of healthy pupils activities, including PE and sports, after school activities and healthy eating.
