Senior School Co-Curricular and Enrichment Programme 2026-27


Welcome

Our co-curricular programme is a vital part of the Lingfield College experience. It complements the academic rigour of the classroom and our strong pastoral care, supporting our whole-pupil approach to education. With over 100 experiences and opportunities on offer, the programme is designed to challenge, inspire, nurture talent, and prepare pupils for life beyond school. Music, Drama and Sport sit at the heart of our offering, alongside a wealth of clubs and societies. Pupils can explore leadership, cultural understanding and debate through popular initiatives such as Model United Nations and the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). Trips and expeditions extend learning beyond the classroom – from global adventures to local community engagement through the Duke of Edinburgh Award. At Lingfield, we expect pupils to take ownership of their co-curricular journey. Every day, time is set aside during extended lunchtimes for pupils to engage in these enriching activities. Termly, pupils must choose to attend a minimum of 2 lunchtime clubs. However, they are encouraged to participate in more, should they wish and may do so.

Benefits of participation: Enhance your all-round education. Develop current interests and discover new ones. Enjoy time to unwind and relax Boost your self-esteem and confidence Improve your academic performance

We invite you to browse the programme and discover just how much is on offer. Many of our clubs have grown from pupil ideas, and we’re always looking to evolve. Whether developing a passion or trying something brand new, our aim is to provide a supportive environment where every pupil feels empowered to take part, take risks, and thrive.
