We are incredibly proud to have achieved the gold standard mentally healthy school award for our outstanding mental health and wellbeing provision.

To achieve this prestigious award, we had to reach the following criteria:

Create a culture of awareness of mental health, tolerance and acceptance whilst promoting mental health strategies.

As we have achieved the Gold Standard award for the past four years, we are absolutely delighted to announce that we have now been awarded the Platinum Standard for the School Games Mark.

The School Games Mark is a government led awards scheme which was launched in 2012 to reward schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community.

As I am sure you are aware, we pride ourselves on the quality of P.E. which we offer to all of our children and it is an enormous honour to achieve such fantastic recognition.

In January 2017, the school was recognised as a Centre of Excellence for Sport by South Yorkshire Sport. An outstanding achievement and a recognition that we are all extremely proud of.

The school will offer CPD and resources for other schools across Yorkshire with the aim of improving sporting opportunities for children in the region.
