Enrichment is crucial to developing the whole individual. At Coopers we are committed to ensuring that our Sixth Form students have access to a variety of opportunities outside of the classroom. Our aim is to help them improve their transferable skills whilst having fun and enjoying their time in the Sixth Form.
Encounters with the world work also form a significant part of our enrichment programme. All Year 12 students have access to work experience in the summer term. A significant amount of work also goes on in both Year 12 and 13 to educate young people about apprenticeships, and the different types of careers that are available via the apprenticeship route. Outside speakers come in throughout the year to discuss the emerging apprenticeship market, in addition to the information we provide about Higher Education.
At present our enrichment offer if relatively broad, this can be seen below.
For 2023/24 we intend to expand upon our enrichment further by offering the following additions to the current post-sixteen enrichment menu
- Competitive post-sixteen teams in Football, Netball and Rugby
- Drama enrichment that results in an end of term production
- Individual music tuition for students wishing to learn an instrument
