Extra-curricular

'Where passions thrive, connections are forged, and endless possibilities unfold'


Extra-curricular Timetable - Spring 2024 (Half Term 4)Intent

We feel that extra-curricular is a fundamental part of life at Jubilee High School and gives our students opportunities to discover and develop personal qualities outside of the classroom, thus developing life-long learners. At Jubilee High School we offer a range of extra curricular opportunities from sports clubs to arts and creative activities as well as intellectual persuits, this encourages students to discover their passions, develop new skills, foster teamwork, and enhance their overall school experience. Therefore we would expect every student at Key Stage 3 to be able to find an activity that they are able to take part in each week.

Impact

Our extra-curricular program plays a pivotal role in the holistic development of our students. These clubs go beyond the traditional classroom setting, providing a platform for our students to explore their passions. Our clubs provide a space for personal growth, the acquisition of vital life skills, and the formation of meaningful connections. Moreover, they foster a sense of belonging and promote inclusivity, creating a vibrant and supportive community within our school. By supporting and participating in these clubs, our students experience a board and balanced education that prepares them for future success as life-long learners. 

We believe that our programme of extra- curricular has the following impacts:
