Co-Curricular

Enrichment and the co-curriculum are integral to The Brian Clarke Church of England Academy.  We want our students to access the very best the opportunities, so that our young people grow in learning, skills, experience and confidence, and develop their whole self in a fully multi-cultural environment where they interact authentically with a wide range of students, and experts/coaches from the wider community.

All students take part in two timetabled co-curricular Period 6 activities per week.

All students will achieve at least one nationally accredited co-curricular qualification during their five years at the school, e.g. the Duke of Edinburgh Award; a CREST Award; national Maths or Computing Challenges, or Young Engineers; National Enterprise Project or National Citizen Scheme – “#iwill”; a grade in a musical instrument/voice; competing at a high level in a school team for sport,debating,public speaking or chess.
