BLS SPORT
For many years, we have worked tirelessly to ensure that every child at Bolton-le-Sands has access to a varied and engaging programme of Physical Education and sport. Our P.E. curriculum, delivered in partnership with PE Passport, is complemented by an extensive extra-curricular offer, providing opportunities for participation and competition at all levels. This commitment was once again recognised in 2024/25 as we proudly maintained our Sainsbury’s School Games Platinum Award—a prestigious accolade achieved by only a handful of schools across the county. We have held this award since 2018, reflecting the sustained impact of our provision and our dedication to excellence in school sport.
In addition, we were honoured to be named Primary School of the Year for P.E. and School Sport for Heysham and Morecambe in 2025—a testament to the passion and hard work of our pupils and staff. At Bolton-le-Sands, children enjoy both participation and competition, understanding that fitness and health are lifelong goals. Our curriculum is broad and balanced, our range of clubs extensive, and we actively signpost talented individuals to further opportunities. We regularly enter local, regional, and national competitions, often with great success, through our partnerships with BLA SSCO and LHSSN, as well as other key stakeholders. Below is a summary of the competitions and initiatives offered during the 2024–2025 academic year, alongside additional exciting opportunities created through wider sports partnerships.
As a school community we were delighted when the Government announced that every primary school in the country would receive a substantial (and ring-fenced) sum of money that must be used to raise levels of participation and enable all children to make life-long positive choices. Please see below for further information.
