We are pleased to announce that we have been awarded the School Games Mark gold award 2022/23.
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.
The gold award is for those schools that have challenged themselves and demonstrated their progress over time against a national benchmark.
We are extremely proud of our pupils for their dedication to all aspects of school sport, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.
We are delighted we have been recognised for our success. Well done to all!
