Enrichment Week

A key part of our Enrichment Programme is our annual Enrichment Week, which takes place towards the end of every academic year. Enrichment Week consists of a variety of trips and activities either in-school or off-site. All students within Years 7-10 are given the chance to take part in a residential trip during this week or participate in a combination of day trips and activities organised in school. Our in-school activities programme gives a broad range of choices and options for students who opt not to be on a trip for that day ensuring that all students have the opportunity to maximise the benefits of the week.
