Extra-curricular
This is an in-house bespoke programme to develop skills useful for life beyond the Sixth Form. This includes delivering the requirements for British Values, Citizenship, SMSC, RE, careers and health education. It includes exciting modules such as self-defence, cooking on a budget, first aid, debating and applying for a university course, an apprenticeship or employment.
We offer our students the opportunity to undertake the Extended Project Qualification. Students will study a topic of their choice and be guided through this qualification by a dedicated team of teachers from start to the final project assessment. This qualification is recognised by all universities as well as potential employers. The Duke of Edinburgh Award is offered to all students in the Sixth Form and is an internationally recognised qualification. Transferable skills such as organisation, resilience, teamwork, volunteering, and many more are developed.
Early in the Autumn term, we appoint House Captains from the year 12 intake. Many of these students develop their leadership skills to a great extent and they are then in line for posts of Senior Prefects and Head Boy/Head Girl when we come to appoint them in the Summer term. Senior Prefects will have a very important role within the school, both supporting staff on every day issues and representing the school at a wide range of events throughout the year.
