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: Bee Stingers Netball Composite Relay Girls Football Boccia Kurling Mixed Football Fundamental Movement Skills Indoor Athletics Dodgeball Benchball Swimming Gala Dance Competition Cross Country Panathlon Cricket Burscough Football Tournament Quad Kids With a total of young people competing in local inter-school competitions 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 all our committed members of Staff who always go above and beyond to give our children these opportunities. We look forward to applying once again in 2025! ### Sports Gold Mark 2023/2024 Award [![](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/sports-gold-mark-2023-2024-award/SG-L1-3-gold-2023-24.png)](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/gallery/sports-gold-mark-2023-2024-award/SG-L1-3-gold-2023-24.png) [ Relay Competition ](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news/2024-10-10-relay-competition) [JN Sports Nursery Session ](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news/2024-10-16-jn-sports-nursery-session) ### News & Events - [Calendar](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/calendar) - [Latest News](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news) - [Letters and Communication](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/news-events/letters) ![Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery](https://files.schudio.com/burscough-village-primary-school/images/logo/Burscough-footer-logo-2.png) #### Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery Colburne Close, Burscough Ormskirk Lancashire L40 4LB 01704 895403 01704 895403 #### Useful Links: - [Calendar](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/calendar) - [Contact Details](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/contact) - [Who's Who](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/who-s-who) - [Why Pick Us?](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/why-pick-us) - [Equality](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/equality) - [Virtual Tour](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/virtual-tour) - [Admission](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/admissions) - [Senior Leadership Team](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/about-us/senior-leadership-team) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/BVPSPrimarySchool/) - [X](https://twitter.com/bvpstweets) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@burscoughvillage7623) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/burscough-village-primary-school/) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bvps_primaryschool) © Copyright 2023–2026 Burscough Village Primary School and Nursery School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.burscough.lancsngfl.ac.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
