Sports Gold Mark 2023/2024 Award - October 2024
 

(click logo to visit the website)

We are delighted to announce that we have achieved the School Games Gold Mark Award for the 2023/24 academic year!

The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.

With a total of young people competing in local inter-school competitions this year, we are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport. As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.
