For full details and after school club information please download our Enhanced Provision Booklet 2024-2025.
We have carefully considered the breadth of provision on offer to cover a range of areas including art, Sport, STEM, wellbeing and humanities. These clubs will run for a 6 week block (which may cross over a holiday period) to ensure an equal offer is available. You may notice that there is more clubs for KS2 children – this is simply because there are more classes at KS2 than at KS1.
All clubs will run straight after school for an hour. Children will need collecting from the main school car park/reception area (please wait outside as the reception area is used to dismiss the children from).
A number of sessions will be run by external providers. A number of sessions will be run by school staff, who will be giving their time to offer children this enrichment after school.
Each block is for a 6 week period. The dates for each block are shown below.
Block | Dates |
Block 1 | 9/9/24 – 18/10/24 (for most clubs) |
Block 2 | 28/10/24 – 6/12/24 |
Block 3 | 9/12/24 – 31/1/25 |
Block 4 | 3/2/25 – 21/3/25 |
Block 5 | 24/3/25 – 16/5/25 |
Block 6 | 19/5/25 – 4/7/25 |
Due to the high quality of external providers, all clubs require a charge to ensure these can be offered to all children. Staff-run clubs are also subject to a charge, to ensure high quality resources can be purchased to support the offer. Academy staff do not receive any of this money themselves, it is all used to fund the clubs for the benefit of the pupils.
We have deliberately planned for blocks of 6 weeks. This gives children the opportunity to get really involved in the club rather than just ‘having a go’. Just like clubs children may attend in an evening or at a weekend, the more they commit to it the more successful they will become.
Bookings for the blocks will be released 2 weeks before that block’s start date. A link will be emailed via the school communication system. Once a place has been reserved payment is due. If no payment is received 1 week prior to the club start date, the place will be released.
A waiting list will be held for any oversubscribed clubs. Clubs must have a minimum number of participants to run (approx. 7)
We are aware that some families may benefit from being aware that a block’s payment will be needed, in advance of a booking opening, so we have chosen to share this information with you in advance. We hope this will help families plan what club(s) children may wish to book onto.
In addition to the above, Year 6 booster clubs will operate after February half term and the KS2 SATs week.
Choir will take place during lunchtimes and Mrs Joyce will speak to KS2 children directly about this opportunity.
Mr Scott will continue to select children to represent the school in a wide range of competitive sports. This will be based on their ability and performance in their PE lessons.
