Beyond The Classroom

Students thrive in an environment where they are given the opportunity to develop their interests and find new ones beyond the classroom.  Therefore a range of activities is on offer, including:  

• Sport (inter-house and inter-school competition as well as non-competitive activities);
• Art and Design;
• Drama (clubs and productions);
• Music (orchestras, ensembles, bands, choirs, concerts and productions);
• An extensive range of subject visits and field trips;
• Cultural visits, including theatre, museum and concert trips;
• Trips abroad (including skiing trips);
• Language exchanges;
• Duke of Edinburgh Awards (Bronze to Gold);
• World Challenge Expeditions;
• Science (including an Eco Club);
• Business and Enterprise;
• ICT.

Late buses are run to ensure all students have the opportunity to participate in after College clubs.

Leadership, service and responsibility are also strongly encouraged in the College through:

• Service as Head Boy and Head Girl or as Sixth Form student officers in wider College life;
• Student democracy (involving year councils, a College Student Council and representation in the West Sussex Youth Parliament);
• Voluntary work (both in primary schools and in the local community);
• Sports and community leadership courses;
• Numerous charity and fundraising activities throughout the year.
