The School Games Mark is a government led awards scheme to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community. Bournville School has recently been awarded the Gold Award, having demonstrated excellence in each of the four key areas:
- Participation – how many young people at your school are being engaged in sporting activity?
- Competition – how many different sports are being played and how many competitions are being entered?
- Workforce – how many pupils are involved in leadership activities alongside taking part in competitions?
- Clubs – how many local links does your school have with clubs or establishments from the area?
We are a school games organiser (SGO) school and the PE department run weekly sports activities for local primary schools as well as the wide range of enrichment opportunities offered to our own students.
Huge congratulations to all who worked to achieve this award!
Mr M Payton – Subject Leader for PE
