Enrichment Days

There are two enrichment days across the year, with the Sixth Form coming off timetable to develop their skills in varied ways.

The first is always the London Challenge and is for both year groups. During the day, students work in groups to complete a series of activities around the capital. This event is designed to build relationships within and between year groups, with a focus on tactical planning in the week leading up to the competition and then teamwork, organisation, time management and problem-solving skills all needing to be employed on the day. Although it changes each year to keep it fresh, the London Challenge usually incorporates a scavenger hunt, a quiz with clues around the city, the need to complete a circuit of specified destinations, the much-anticipated tacky souvenir purchasing and a requirement to take countless selfies. The event finishes before the end of the school day so that those who want to can then plan an afternoon and evening of entertainment, with students often going to a theatre show, a restaurant, shopping, to a football match or to a tourist attraction.

The summer enrichment day takes place after Year 13 have left following their exams. Previous trips have included visiting The Freud Museum, The Science Museum, The Victoria and Albert Museum and The London Law Society, London Zoo, St Paul's Cathedral and more.
