To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what steps he is taking to promote sport in schools. [98982]

I am working closely with the schools Minister to deliver a step change in the range and quality of school sport, in terms of both curriculum PE and after-school sports activities including competitive team games.
