Extended Studies
In the Sixth Form, a period a week is allocated to an enrichment activity in both Year 12 and Year 13.
In this section
A range of activities are available including Beginners’ Italian, Philosophy and Website Design. All activities are intended to complement and stretch the students beyond their chosen A Level subjects.
In Year 13, the emphasis of the activities subtly shifts to provide a more recreational activity, which is designed to relieve the stress of their final year and provide a little mental health slot for the week. The activities offered by staff are widely varied, with something for everyone.
The most popular course is Cookery. However many of other courses tempt the pupils’ curiosity such as African drumming, Circus Skills, Yoga, Beginners’ Guitar, and Strategic Board Games. In addition, some more serious option are also offered including Interview Skills, which is run by the Headmaster Mr Dearden and a certificated First Aid Course.
Young Engineers
A very prestigious group where a team of four a five students work with industrial engineers on a current engineering problem. They learn about the engineering process, build a prototype of their design and presenting a report to an expert panel.
