Clubs and Enrichments
At St Andrew’s we believe that the provision of learning outside of the traditional classroom environment broadens our curriculum, enabling our students to apply and develop learning in real life situations.
The entitlement curriculum covers a wide range of experiences and opportunities for students to learn holistically and developing character.
Clubs start back on Monday 22nd September 2025, unless otherwise stated. A timetable will be posted here from September 2025.
Enrichment and Personal Development
Our enrichment offer provides opportunities for all students to meaningfully engage with extended trips and visits that they may otherwise not be able to.
Personal Development Days run throughout the year, one per term, to support a range of culturally rich activities that expand the curriculum. Trips will range from day trips, overnight stays to full residentials. These types of trips are an excellent way for student to build on their in class learning as well as learn important soft skills such as independence and of self-organisation. All students participate in our Personal Development Days, supporting all students accessing a broad enrichment offer.
To enhance the curriculum and further develop a love of learning, students have the opportunity to go on other visits and trips. We want all of our students to be able to take advantage of these wider activities on offer during their five years at St Andrew’s. To support our community to plan for this, a five-year calendar of trips and visits is published, with estimates of cost. Applications for trips are made early in the year to give parents sufficient time to pay for the more expensive options.
All trips and visits have to be paid for using the MCAS system; the school does not accept cash or cheques. When you log in to MCAS, you will see any trips and visits that your child is eligible to attend. Registration and payment for trips can be made online and you will receive an email confirmation of your payment.
Afterschool provision
Faculties offer a wide range of afterschool provision and activities ranging from the Arts, Drama, STEM, Sports and creative writing. A weekly activities notice is share with parents and carers via our newsletter and during tutor time, and outlines the offer. An example of the weekly offer can be found on the link below.
Entitlement Curriculum
As part of our Enrichment offering, our ‘Entitlement Curriculum’ runs throughout the school timetable for KS3 students. More details on this can be found here.
