A rich sporting culture

From Year 6 through to Sixth Form, pupils benefit from a broad and ambitious Games Programme, with core sports including hockey, netball, cricket and football, alongside opportunities in athletics, badminton, swimming, climbing, fitness and more.

Girls are supported by specialist coaches and outstanding facilities, including Quorn playing fields and the Parkin Sports Centre, complete with a state-of-the-art fitness suite, creating an environment where every pupil can develop physically, mentally and socially.

Our sporting culture is strengthened by experienced staff, including current and former athletes competing nationally and internationally, who bring valuable expertise and inspiration to school sport. Pupils also benefit from links with elite sport through the wider Loughborough sporting community and our partnership with the Loughborough University National Tennis Academy (LUNTA), where talented young players combine elite-level training with academic study.

Current pupil Daniella has recently been awarded a Wimbledon 2026 qualifying wildcard, following in the footsteps of LUNTA alumna Mika Stojsavljevic, winner of the 2024 US Open Girls’ Singles title. Having elite athletes immersed in the school community provides younger girls with role models who inspire ambition, dedication and self-belief.

Alongside a thriving fixture programme and extensive co-curricular provision, our Student Athlete Programme supports pupils competing at regional and national level, helping them balance sporting ambition with academic success and personal wellbeing.
