Introduction

There should be more to the sixth form experience than studying for exams. At HGS we believe that all students should have the opportunity to access a wide range of activities designed to enrich the academic curriculum, develop new skills and interests as well as just to have fun! The enrichment studies programme offers a diverse selection of activities including both timetabled and non-timetabled general courses.

Sticking to the university model, on a Wednesday afternoon we have an enrichment session for all students. The courses range from sport and mixed martial arts to volunteering, Art to Mandarin Chinese. Some of our students play team sports such as football and basketball and compete at regional tournaments.

The enrichment opportunities help to develop the students’ leadership qualities, independence, life-long skills such as team work and generally offer them something else other than A-level studies to do.
