Extra-Curricular and Enrichment
At North Bromsgrove High School, we believe that personal growth and character development happen both inside and outside the classroom. Some of the most memorable aspects of school life come from the experiences we share, the challenges we overcome and the opportunities that broaden our horizons.
Throughout their time at North Bromsgrove, students benefit from a rich programme of educational visits and extracurricular opportunities designed to develop confidence, independence and resilience. These include outdoor education residentials, cultural visits, theatre trips, sports fixtures and tours, university visits, careers-related experiences and a range of curriculum-enrichment activities.
Students are encouraged to participate fully in school life and to embrace opportunities that support our CARE values of Community, Aspiration, Respect and Endeavour. Through these experiences, they develop important life skills, create lasting memories and build friendships beyond the classroom.
We are also proud to offer the Duke of Edinburgh's Award from Bronze in lower school through to Gold at Sixth Form, providing students with opportunities to challenge themselves, contribute to their communities and develop valuable skills for the future.
These experiences form an important part of a North Bromsgrove education, helping every student to grow into a confident, compassionate and aspirational young person, ready for success in the next stage of their journey.

Sixth Form Enrichment Activities
At North Bromsgrove High School Sixth Form, we believe that education extends far beyond the classroom. Enrichment opportunities play a vital role in developing confident, well-rounded young people and help students build the skills, experiences, and personal qualities valued by universities, apprenticeships, and employers.
All Sixth Form students will be timetabled for at least one enrichment session each week. These activities are designed to complement academic study while encouraging initiative, resilience, leadership, and responsibility.
Enrichment opportunities may include:
• Student leadership roles
• Mentoring and curriculum support for younger students
• Volunteering opportunities
• Academic competitions and challenges
• Sports clubs and physical activities
• The Duke of Edinburgh's Award participation
• Work experience placements
• Community and wider school involvement
These experiences form part of the 600 guided learning hours required by the Government and support students in developing valuable life skills alongside their academic qualifications.
