At Meadowhead, we want students to experience life beyond the classroom by celebrating and encouraging students’ talents and interests. We want them to be able to relate to others and the world around them.  As well as offering experiences linked to their academic subjects like trips, we also offer a wide and diverse extra-curricular programme. The offer provides experiences for those looking to develop a specific talent or interest, experience something new, build their self-esteem or take part in a team experience.

Our after school clubs and teams cover all areas of interest including diverse sports, music, drama, health, art, cooking, board games, homework and many more.

Within school, we offer leadership opportunities for students such as Mentors, Reading Partner, Sports Leader or member of school parliament.

 

On Monday 5^th October, students will be able to begin attending after-school sessions in PE (Y7-Y10) and in Subject Support (Y11-Y13). We will expand our programme further after half-term.

There is no need to book or enrol for any of the sessions – just turn up! Please see below for the information for the relevant year group.

 

Y7-Y10 PE Sessions

Each year group has a dedicated afternoon:    

Y7 – Monday, Y8 – Tuesday, Y9 – Thursday, Y10 – Friday

For many students, this is the day they already have PE. For students not already in PE kit, they will be able to get changed at the start of the hour. Everyone will need to go home in their kit at the end.

Y7/Y8/Y9 will have a choice of football, badminton and the fitness suite. Y10 will be able to use the fitness suite.

At the end of the normal school day, Y7, Y9 and Y10 students should head to the Sports Hall using the directions provided in form time (see map on the right here). On Tuesdays, Y8 students should wait in L05 and L06 for PE teachers to arrive and collect. The teacher will take a register each session which will be sent to reception.

 

Y11 Subject Support (Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays)

Y11 students will head to the named classroom at the end of the school day and sit down by 2:55pm. Sessions will begin at 3pm.

Some Y11 groups will be collected from English classrooms and relocated to specialist rooms.

Y11 students should commit to staying until at least 3:30pm – they will need to leave the site via main reception in the Rosling.
