Gold Sports Mark
We are delighted to announce that we, Longton Primary School , have achieved the School Games Gold Level 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.
Our sporting achievements this year include:
Increased participation in a range of sports.
95% of children are regularly taking part in lunchtime organised sports
Highlights include:
Volleyball champions
Runner up in girls football competition
Runner up in boys football competition
3rd place in Athletics competition
With a total of 50 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, including those young volunteers, leaders and officials who made our competitions possible.
As part of our application, we were asked to fulfil criteria in the areas of participation, competition, workforce and clubs, and we are pleased that the hard work of everyone at our school has been rewarded this year.
Mr Pearson
