Enrichment
At Beths, we believe enrichment activities are vital to give our scholars a variety of opportunities outside the classroom to build essential life skills, enhance their wellbeing, and make meaningful contributions to our community and beyond.
We have therefore created a bespoke wide-ranging Sixth Form enrichment programme that is designed to support our students’ growth, resilience, and readiness for higher education and their careers in the modern world.
To ensure our students have ample opportunity to take part in a variety of opportunities, we dedicate Wednesday afternoons specifically for these activities, allowing our sixth formers the time and space to truly explore their interests.
Our Enrichment Opportunities include:
- Academic Lectures: Our Sixth Form students benefit from attending lectures from a variety of experts in their field to deepen their understanding of academic subjects and showcase the approach to learning at university.
