ENRICHMENT OPTIONS

All students in Year 12 commit to one lesson per week of one of the ‘enrichment’ options. We offer these options to help ensure that our college students are well-rounded and well-prepared for their applications post-18. The options currently available for 2023-2024 are listed below; it is possible that we may be able to offer additional choices. We will be able to give more information on additional enrichment activities when you enrol.

This is a nationally recognised coaching qualification that enables successful learners to lead groups of people in sport/activity, under indirect supervision.

This is a course designed for students over the age of 16 years to gain experience in leading and coaching students in a variety of sports and activities. We have the opportunity to regularly visit local primary schools on a Wednesday afternoon.

Students cook a range of different products that allow them to explore different cooking skills and techniques.

Later on in the term there is opportunity for students to direct the recipe choices. (Students will need to supply their own ingredients.)

There is also an opportunity to take an online Hygiene Test.

Core Sport is an opportunity for students to continue with a healthy, active lifestyle. Students can switch off from the everyday exam pressures and enjoy participating in physical activity with their peers.

Students will collaborate and decide which activities they want to participate in. An example of previous years’ options are Fitness Suite, Football, Badminton, Basketball, Table Tennis, Trampolining and Swimming. This option also provides an excellent chance to play sporting fixtures against other Sixth Forms / Colleges.

Was Brexit a good idea? Should Euthanasia be legalised? Has social media damaged our society? If you find yourself having opinions on moral, social and political questions such as these or simply enjoy putting your points across in an argument then Debating Enrichment would be a perfect choice for you.

Over the year, we will spend time considering how to structure a debate before choosing a range of topics to debate and discuss.
