MORE THAN A LEVELS

Beyond the Classroom

Some of the most important learning happens outside of the classroom. Whether performing on stage, competing on the sports field, leading a society, exploring the outdoors or giving back to the community, you will develop confidence, resilience and friendships that last long after Sixth Form.

Pupils choose from many options in art, music, drama, dance, sport, outdoor education and a vibrant programme of clubs and societies.

Whether cultivating a particular talent, competing against the best or taking part for fun, activities beyond the classroom help to create the buzz of daily school life.

Through involvement in extra-curricular activities, pupils become more rounded and gain a sense of perspective about their academic studies. Helping pupils develop ‘breadth and balance’ is one of our values. We encourage everyone to take full advantage of the opportunities available, get involved and make commitments.

Quality time spent on the pitch, stage, trail and in the studio helps students develop self-confidence, organisation and resilience and, more often than not, interests for life.

Read our Community & Enrichment magazine to discover recent expeditions, performances, sporting successes, clubs, leadership opportunities and pupil-led initiatives across The Perse.

From academic activities and societies to sport and music, there is constant encouragement to pursue new interests and step outside of our comfort zones.
