Academic Enrichment
This interdisciplinary approach to learning equips girls for a world where the ability to think critically and to evaluate is valued. Visits to museums, visiting speakers, a range of school clubs, such as coding, art and Science clubs, develop and extend the opportunities for girls to make links between the classroom and the real world.
Year 3 to 6 Enrichment Sessions
At Tormead, we are passionate in delivering a well rounded education. Our new enrichment programme, commencing in September 2024, will engage pupils in ‘hands-on’ learning experiences beyond their daily curriculum. The enrichment sessions are timetabled for 90 minutes each week and there will be a carousel of activities for all pupils to complete.
- Enrichment Carousel
The following activities are to be taught in the carousel this year.
- Cooking and Nutrition
- Engineering
- First Aid
- Mindfulness
- Outdoor Enrichment
- Robotics and Coding
- One term will be dedicated to the following:
- Fiver Challenge – business enterprise skills – Y5 only
- Production and theatre skills – Year 3, Year 4 and Year 6
Beacons
The Beacon Programme encourages the pupils to complete self-directed learning through researching and presenting information on a topic that interests them, beyond (or as an extension to) the subjects taught in the classroom.
Enrichment Weeks
Throughout the year, we engage in various events such as Poetry, Space, Parliament and Book Week.
