The co-curriculum is an integral part of an Ashford School education, and we expect all our students to be actively engaged in a range of activities.
Our co-curricular programme is designed to support pupils to become enthusiastic, talented, and curious in everything they do beyond the classroom.
Some elements of the co-curricular programme are compulsory, and some are entirely voluntary, and the participation expectations vary across the different years of the school.
Pupils take part in a number of activities and societies before, during and after school. To ensure a real breadth of experience and to support pupil development they are encouraged to select activities from each of three categories.
- Care activities focus on wellbeing, caring for others and the environment around us.
- Craft focusses on developing practical skills and techniques that can be applied to projects.
- Cognition centres on learning and developing your ‘thinking skills’.
