Enrichment Activities

Show all activities
Caludon Sixth Form has a strong careers and enrichment programme which enables students to develop a range of work skills. These support students’ university applications, enhance their C.V.s and, if applying for an apprenticeship, show employers a range of skills, which are beyond academic. Students also have the opportunity to become involved in student leadership. Positions include senior student leaders, membership of a committee (graduation, welfare, transition, charity and fundraising) or they may become faculty ambassadors representing particular subjects. In Year 12, enrichment is compulsory and gives the students the opportunity to take part in an activity which benefits the local community, be that the school or beyond. Students must complete 25 hours of volunteer work during the year, however most students complete many more than this. Year 12 students also complete a week’s work experience which allows students to develop work skills, explore potential career options and, for those students considering an apprenticeship, can often lead to job offers. In addition, students have weekly Skills lessons, which cover a range of topics including careers, current affairs, life skills and also gives the students the opportunity to complete the AS level Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).
