We are delighted to announce that we, Selsted CoE Primary School, have once again achieved the School Games Gold Mark Award for the 2025/26 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:

Various medals at SGO tournaments, training all of Swingfield to be Sports or Play Leaders, coming 2nd at District Sports (with one child winning the javelin), every child attending a tournament or festival this academic year.

With a total of 98 young people competing in local inter-school competitions or festivals 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.

A special thanks to:

Sarah Green our amazing SGO

Every child who has represented our school so well

All the teachers hard work and dedication

The parents for all your support

We look forward to applying once again in 2027!
