“Schools use competitive sport to energise the entire school culture; their leaders understand its value and continually promote it”.
“But the real value of competitive sport is the positive effect it has on education. Schools that win on the field win in the exam hall!”
Wilshaw (2014), Going the extra mile – Excellence in competitive school sport
Our aim
Competition- what does each level mean?
Level 1 Competition - school based against other members of your class, year group or the wider Thornhill community.
Level 2 Competition - against other schools in the Southampton area.
Level 3 Competition - compete at county level (Hampshire School Games or Club competition).
The award badges are presented in assembly and are worn on your school jumper.
Awards and their criteria are regularly reviewed in school by the PE team. If you have competed any part of an award at a community club , please share it with us!
