What is Enrichment?
Students are able to choose from a fantastic range of after-school Enrichment activities and clubs, both academic and non-academic. Sessions are typically 3pm – 3.45pm, although some go on later than this. There is a growing number of Enrichments and clubs to choose from each week, mostly running from Mondays – Fridays, although we try to avoid running activities on a Tuesday (due to staff training after school). The majority of sessions are run by staff volunteers. Enrichment is overseen by Mr Dunn and Mrs Murphy, who are always happy to help.
Why attend Enrichment?
There are two main reasons to attend the after-school activities on offer. Firstly, catch up sessions are a fantastic tool to help accelerate your academic achievement. Whether you missed a lesson, want to improve your depth of knowledge or need help with coursework then catch up sessions will provide you with one to one tuition from a range of staff in different departments.
Secondly, Enrichment activities allow you to gain experience and skills in areas not typically part of your everyday curriculum. Enhancing your personal attributes by opting to gain new experiences is extremely desirable to future employers and higher education providers.
Who can attend?
Everyone! Whatever year group you are in there are a huge range of after academy sessions to choose from. Some activities are specifically targeted at individual year groups or key stages and this information is provided on each webpage. Enrichments that are open to everyone provide great opportunities to make friends in other year groups.
