REP/REP + (Priority Education Network) colleges will be the only ones to continue to benefit from these two additional hours, which are added to physical education and sports classes. But the post-Olympic ambition to build “a sporting nation” and to keep the “legacy” of this great summer event alive seems to have come to an end.

Fairer,” she tweeted.
