Enrichment Programmes
Extending core school and residential curriculum in the community.
The enrichment programmes extend our core school and boarding school curriculum, thanks to Salisbury’s wonderful relationship with the local community.
Attendance and participation is warmly welcomed at local community events such as weekend sporting fixtures. Many in the community also show their support by sponsoring sporting events and providing work experience placements.
Our enrichment programmes provide opportunities for students to:
Explore new opportunities for learning to develop self-confidence
Rehearse newly learnt skills in differing contexts (e.g. social skills and self-management)
Participate and contribute within the community
Extend areas of interest and passion.
