Enrichment

Our academy promotes activities that widen our students’ experiences through our Curriculum Plus programme. This includes opportunities to participate in sports clubs, the performing arts, trips abroad, cultural experiences and university visits.

These experiences help to develop our students’ self-confidence, build resilience and feel a sense of belonging.

They also challenge our students to learn new skills and find a passion that they can take with them throughout their life. Students can take part in activities they already love or choose to try something brand new. We encourage all students to get involved and choose at least one or two Curriculum Plus activities.

As a Sixth Form student, you are becoming a specialist in your chosen curriculum areas, but it is vital to also gain a breadth of experience.  The opportunities on offer to you cover a wide range of interests and skills that should appeal to all of you. 

Participating in Curriculum Plus provides you with additional experience to your academic studies and will elevate your applications for university places, apprenticeships and employment.

There are a wide range of opportunities available but ensure that it fits in with your timetable and that you will commit to it throughout Year 12 in order to gain the most from the experience.
