Sports Awards
School Games Mark
The purpose of School Games Mark is to reward and recognise a school’s engagement (provision and uptake) in the School Games against a national benchmark and to celebrate keeping young people active.
We are so proud to continue to be able to offer such a broad range o
f opportunities for our pupils, not only at school during PE lessons and extra curriculum clubs, but also in competitive situations both within school and against other schools at external events. Our thanks go to NOSSP for their support in helping us achieve this with their comprehensive competition calendar.
We are very proud that Bishop Loveday has now been awarded the School Games Mark Platinum Award for 2024/25 and 2025/26
Youth Sport Trust – Quality Mark
The Youth Sport Trust Quality Mark is “A NATIONALLY RECOGNISED BADGE OF EXCELLENCE FOR PE AND SCHOOL SPORT”
This is a self-review tool, which we complete every year. As a result of our application, we are assessed by the Youth Sport Trust during a face-to-face meeting. We were delighted to be awarded their GOLD Quality Mark for 2022/23.
This truly recognises our commitment to school sport and PE and how it is embedded within the day to day running of Bishop Loveday.
Equal Access Award from the FA
We are pleased to announce that we have been presented with the prestigious Equal Access Award from the Football Association (FA). This award recognises our commitment to offering equal access in the curriculum for girls football, ensuring that all female students have the opportunity to participate in, and enjoy the game, on an equal footing with their male peers. The Equal Access Award is part of the Government's commitment to building on the incredible legacy of the Lionesses, who have inspired a generation of young footballers with their back-to-back European Championship victories.
