In Key Stage 3 one lesson in our two-week timetable is a designated Service and Leadership Enrichment session. This means that all students in Key Stage 3 have the opportunity to take part in enrichment activities during the school day.

Enrichment gives students opportunities to try new and varied activities that may not strictly fit into the curriculum, but that develop character, resilience and motivation, and improves their chance of social mobility. Allowing, further opportunities for students to Aspire, Grow and Succeed.

Students choose from a range of options which will develop their resilience, self-belief and communication skills. The aim here is to develop leaders of the future who understand and support the wider Allerton Grange School community.

Each term students are given the opportunity to select an activity from one the following enrichment strands:

Community

An opportunity to learn about the world around us and the different people that live within in it. This develops leadership skills such as conflict resolution and mediation, adaptability, people management, problem-solving and decision-making. 

Commitment

An opportunity to demonstrate dedication and recognise that success comes from hard work, consistency, planning and self-management. 

Enrichment offer opportunities include electives concerned with sport, language or music.

Creativity

An opportunity for students to develop their creative skills through a range of mediums including dance, craft and problem solving opportunities. 

This develops skills of resilience, organisation, discipline and project management.
