Co-Curricular SampleProgramme
Introduction
"Ballard provides not just the foundation for academic achievement but also for the creation of well-rounded independent thinkers. The range of activities are widely praised and are valued in their own right – in other words, Co-Curricular, not ExtraCurricular.”
VickyGray,DeputyHead, Co-CurricularandOperations
