Enrichment

Enrichment opportunities

At Petroc, we believe that what can be achieved at college is far more than just the value of a student’s study programme. We aim to support their holistic development, enabling young people to seize opportunities that will develop them physically, socially and emotionally, whilst also supporting them to build power skills of communication, teamwork, collaboration and critical thinking. Most of all, we want them to have fun and build their confidence and self-efficacy.

Petroc Plus is our extensive programme of extracurricular activities* that includes academic, arts and sports academies, social and wellbeing activities, social action projects, Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award, ambassador and volunteering opportunities. Our expectation is that all learners will participate in at least one activity each year.

Students sign up for our Petroc Plus academies and activities at the start of the year via their myPetroc portal, though many can be joined at any time during the academic year, subject to availability.

You can view the full range of opportunities on the enrichment pages of our website.
