SOUTH Bromsgrove High School is celebrating a major sporting success after achieving the School Games Mark Gold Award for 2025/26.
The accolade, awarded by the Youth Sport Trust, recognises schools for their commitment to competitive sport and physical activity.
It marks the first time South Bromsgrove has reached Gold standard since the 2018/19 academic year.
To achieve the award, schools must demonstrate strong performance across four areas: participation in extracurricular sport, involvement in inter-school competition, opportunities for student leadership, and partnerships with local sports clubs.
The award recognises the enthusiasm of South Bromsgrove High students, the dedication of the PE department and the support of community partners in creating a thriving sporting culture across the school.
Gill Punt, head of PE, said: “Achieving the Gold standard is a significant accomplishment and reflects the strength of our PE and school sport provision.
“This recognition is a testament to the hard work and commitment of our PE team, students and wider community partners.”
A spokesperson added: "The award highlights the school’s ongoing commitment to ensuring every student has access to high-quality PE, competitive opportunities and the many physical and wellbeing benefits that sport can provide."
