Education isn't just about the lessons students take in school...

Education is much more than that. It's about the activities and experiences that extend learning beyond the classroom.

Enrichment is the name given to those additional experiences that make each subject more meaningful or more rewarding. All students will benefit from enrichment but particularly the more able students. It allows students to explore their subject in greater depth or breadth beyond what is taught in the classroom. It allows them to discover personal passions and use their imagination and natural curiosity.

On top of all that, engaging in enrichment activities shows an employer how dedicated you are, how keen you are to learn new skills and how willing you are to extend your own development.
