We are very proud of our achievements at Parkfield; you can find our awards displayed in the school entrance and on any correspondence from the school:
| In order to meet the Basic Skills Agency Award, schools have to meet 10 elements and demonstrate that they are on an upward trend. A primary school has to demonstrate that it has all the evidence in place for each element before the Primary Quality Mark can be awarded. | |
| Parkfield are proud to be a Green Flag Eco School. This award is down to the commitment and determination our pupils have shown to reducing their carbon footprint through a range of measures. We now recycle over 75% of our waste and have been recognised for campaign to ban plastics from our school. | |
| The MEN Schools Awards takes place each year. The Eco team at Parkfield were nominated for the work they have done raising awareness within our communities of the damage pollution has on our wildlife , health and habitats. | |
| We are Picture News Advocate. We use Picture News each week in a special whole school assembly. It helps keep our assemblies fresh and current and gives the opportunity for our pupils to discuss and learn about what is going on in the world. Our pupils love the discussion element and being able to share their thoughts and feelings on a wide range of topics. | |
| The Extended Schools Award shows how we at Parkfield seek to provide and host a range of activities and services designed to meet the needs of our pupils and so encourage the inclusion of our pupils in all aspects of school and community life. | |

| In order to achieve our Healthy Schools Award, we were assessed against four criteria: PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education including Sex and Relationships Education and Drug Education), Healthy Eating, Physical Activity and Emotional Health and Well Being. | |
| Effective School Council Silver Award has been awarded to our school in recognition for the really good work that we do around encouraging pupil voice and contributions to the life of the school. | |
| The Primary Languages Quality Mark has been awarded in recognition of Parkfield‘s primary languages curriculum. The award audits, embeds and evaluates provision and celebrates us as a school that is delivering languages effectively. A primary school has to demonstrate that it has all the evidence in place for each element before the Quality Mark can be awarded. | |

The School Games Mark is a government-led scheme that rewards schools for their commitment to the development of competition across their school and into the community. Our sporting achievements to help gain this award include: entering a variety of local inter-school competitions, such as, dodgeball, football, netball, hockey, rugby and basketball to name a few!! The total number of children taking part was about 60. A special thanks to Mrs Banks and EdStart Rochdale for gathering and collating the evidence throughout the year. |
