Academic Enrichment
Designed to encourage students outside and beyond their A level subjects.
In 2020, we introduced a new programme of academic enrichment lessons into the Year 12 curriculum. Our students are spending one lesson every week away from their examination subjects, learning about areas not on their A level specifications.
Our aim is to broaden and deepen their intellectual experience and to get our sixth formers valuing different areas of learning they might not have known much about, or thought about, before. We are hoping that this will make them more informed and rounded students, thinkers, university and job applicants and people.
