Our Super-Curricular
programme
As well as their academic studies,
students in The Weald Sixth
Form take part in a wide range of
Super-Curricular activities. This
often involves supporting younger
students in their studies and in
other areas such as sporting
activities and organisational skills.
We have a flourishing tutoring
system in the school whereby
many Sixth Form students tutor
younger students in specific
subject areas. The fact that our
students want to make these
wider contributions to the school
community demonstrates the
values that have been built up
in our school and Sixth Form
community. The skills developed
through this Super-Curricular
programme have been invaluable
to many students as they have
moved into Higher Education or
training.

Super-Curricular has helped
me in a number of ways. I
helped out at Code Club after
school which not only gave
me more chances to practice
my coding but also allowed
me to share my passion and
understanding with younger
students and help them prepare
for the following years if they
chose to continue with Computer
Science.
Working with the lower
school in their Science
lessons has honestly been
something that I look forward to
every Monday morning. Helping
them to grow their confidence and
sense of achievement has been
so rewarding to watch. I loved
Super-Curricular, I would 100% do
it again.

I really enjoyed my SuperCurricular. I chose to
complete two Open University
courses which I was interested
in learning about. I was able to
explore a subject in depth outside
of my regular curriculum, expand
my knowledge and explore
potential career paths.
I have really enjoyed
helping out with Y8 PE
as part of my Super-Curricular
activity as it’s been a great
opportunity to work with some of
the younger students in helping
them build their confidence and
interest in sport. It’s also helped
develop my leadership and
communication skills which will
be useful as I go forwards in life.
