Sport
At Shenley we are fully committed to providing opportunities for students of all abilities. We do this through a variety of different types of activities ranging from sports fixtures for selected students to sports clubs and intra-school competitions for all who wish to be involved.
We work hard at delivering a sustainable programme of sport and have been recognised over a period of time for our excellent provision with a variety of awards and projects. These include:
Youth Sport Trust – Gold partner status
Youth Sport Trust Award for outstanding intra-school sport
School Games Mark – Silver award
DfE Sports Case Study of high achieving schools in sport
