Guiseley School Awarded School Games Silver Mark for Excellence in Sport and Physical Education

Guiseley School is delighted to announce that we have been awarded the prestigious School Games Silver Mark for the 2025–26 academic year. Facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust, this national award evaluates a school's overall commitment to physical literacy, competitive sport, and inclusive physical education.

This recognition reflects the direct impact our sports program has on student growth, character development, and wellbeing. Through high-quality PE teaching, targeted coaching, and an expanding extracurricular timetable, our students are building essential leadership, resilience, and teamwork skills that serve them both on and off the field.

Our commitment to providing an outstanding learning environment has been significantly strengthened by investment in modern, high-grade facilities. These additions ensure our students train and play in conditions that match their ambitions:

  • All-Weather 4G Pitch: A modern surface that expands our curriculum capacity year-round, allowing students to participate in a broader range of sports regardless of weather conditions.
  • Dedicated Cricket Wicket: Upgraded home infrastructure that brings high-level competitive fixtures directly back to our school grounds.

Behind every successful sport program is exceptional instruction and student dedication. Our staff consistently go above and beyond, running extracurricular clubs, organising fixtures, and mentoring young athletes to perform at their best.

Their passion and expert delivery have directly fostered memorable student successes this year, including:

  • Regional Qualification: Reaching the Indoor Athletics Yorkshire Finals through sustained discipline and competitive drive.
  • League Champions: Winning the Leeds Schools Cricket League title through strategic teamwork and athletic skill.
  • Community Competitions: Record student participation across regional inter-school tournaments, reinforcing a strong culture of sportsmanship and pride in representing Guiseley.

We extend our sincere thanks to our dedicated PE Department for providing these opportunities, and to our students for their remarkable effort and commitment.
