Extra-curricular

Central to our mission and ethos is the belief that you should not only be inspired by excellent teaching and achieve academic success but we also strongly believe that you should expect a comprehensive range of enrichment designed to develop you as an individual.
Dance Academy

Our Dance Academy, Newmanoeuvres, is a Contemporary Dance performance company for talented College dancers. Entry is via audition. Students receive additional dance training alongside their Sixth Form studies. They are involved in technique classes, choreographic sessions and performance rehearsals.

Arts Award

It is also possible to take the Arts Award, which is a chance for students to get involved in the arts in a more hands-on way. Students will gain a deeper understanding of the art world through research and volunteering/training projects, as well as producing original artwork and/or performance pieces.
