Burlington School’s Enrichment Programme offers our pupils the opportunity to broaden their skills and aspirations through a variety of fun and engaging practical courses that enhance the curriculum and provide avenues for creativity and mastery.
Benefits of Our Enrichment Programme
Enrichment courses present specialist education and learning experiences in areas specifically related to students’ vocational aims. It can also help pupils explore interests they may not otherwise have considered, while exposing them to related fields that may be more aligned with their talents and interests. At Burlington, we believe in providing direct experience to pupils wherever possible. Enrichment compliments the curriculum and fits with the character of the school.
The Burlington School Enrichment courses are planned specifically to promote and develop problem solving and creative thinking skills, teamwork, behavioural and social skills, citizenship and decision-making skills. We hold an Enrichment Fair at the beginning of each term, where pupils choose 2 enrichments from the 12 different courses on offer.
