Congratulations Mr Bawden – The School has received a GOLD for the School Games Mark award 2025.
The School Games Mark is a government-led award scheme. It celebrates schools’ commitment to developing competitive sport within their school and community.
The School Games Mark follows the School Games’ objectives. Schools must show how they:
- Maintain and increase engagement in the School Games, and ensure every child gets 60 active minutes per day. For SEND students, this would be 20 minutes per day
- Organise competitions that provide positive experiences tailored to students’ motivation, confidence, and abilities
- Focus on key transition points, such as Year 3 and Year 6/7, and how secondary schools take part in the School Games
- Support the personal development of targeted students through youth engagement and leadership
- Engage key stakeholders to promote the value of the School Games and enhance local provision
- Provide equal opportunities for all young people, regardless of gender
- Understand and develop their approach to physical literacy.
