Wider Curriculum Activities

Our students really value the extra-curricular offer. These clubs enable our students to develop in many ways eg gain new skills, take part in their favourite sport, develop a wider group of friends or face challenges to overcome. We are keen that the offer supports students' mental and physical health but also affords opportunities for our young people to develop character, leadership and be of service. Wider curriculum opportunities are delivered by our staff or external experts. Trafford Music Service experts teach a range of musical instruments to students in Y7-Y11. The Combined Cadet Force offers a great opportunity for all students to get external recognition for their skills and is considered favourably by colleges and employers. Other opportunities vary but include Drama, Inclusion Forum, Peer Mentors, Mental Health Ambassadors, Anti-Bullying Ambassadors, Eco Group, GIFT Chaplaincy Team, Sports Leaders, Sports Team and Captaincy, Arts and Homework clubs. We try to meet the interests of our students, reviewing with stakeholders our offer and responding accordingly. eg the request for more creative/expressive activities to be on offer has been actioned.

There are numerous opportunities for students to get involved in enrichment and extra-curricular activities, both at lunchtime and after school. They are open to all and we aim to be responsive to student interests.
