Enrichment
As part of our ongoing commitment to developing well-rounded young people, our offer and pupil experience extends beyond academic excellence.
Our holistic approach to education encompasses a wide range of opportunities beyond the classroom that aims to nurture pupils’ individual talents, develop life-long skills, encourage the pursuit of interests and passions, and exploration of new ones.
Whether participating in a range of sports, exploring music and drama, understanding coding, uncovering history or discovering the world, there is something for everyone. The below should hopefully give you a flavour of our enrichment offer:
