Extra-curricular
An important part of Sixth Form life is taking part in enrichment activities which widen experience, cultural
knowledge and horizons. Our enrichment programme gives you the opportunity to try new subjects and gain new
skills. These activities are pivotal to be able to apply for competitive universities, apprenticeships and
employment. You will have one enrichment lesson a week.
The Norfolk Higher Aspiration Scheme is a fantastic resource to support your academic achievement by running a
range of subject-specific sessions and supporting applications to university and apprenticeships. The Higher
Aspiration Scheme supports you to make competitive applications to universities of your choice, including
Oxbridge and Russell Group universities. There are a wide range of events and trips that you are encouraged to
take part in.
In Year 12 you will complete a Work Experience placement. This will provide you with important opportunities to
learn and practise new skills, increase your confidence and enable you to find out more about your chosen career.
Work Experience also provides valuable content for UCAS applications and CV’s, making you more desirable to
universities and employers
We encourage you to take part in volunteering to give back to our community. This can be done in classes at the
school or in the wider community such as in charity shops, care homes or youth groups. Please discuss
opportunities with your tutor.
Throughout the year you will have many opportunities to participate in trips and excursions that link to most
subjects. The purpose of the trips is to support curriculum study. You are advised to consult with your teachers at
the start of the academic year about provisional dates and costs to allow for financial planning. Support from the
16-19 Bursary may also be available.
