Stephanie White June 2020

● At Victoria School, every pupil has had the opportunity to access enriching experiences throughout the year, above and beyond our classroom and outdoor curriculum delivery.

● Each year, we seek to expand our offer to include a diverse range of enrichment opportunities for all of our pupils. This ensures that we further; engage and motivate them, broaden their experiences, develop their leisure skills and interests, their wider friendships, leadership skills and future aspirations.

Enrichment at Victoria School 2019-20

● At Victoria School, all of our enrichment activities and their impacts are recorded for every pupil throughout the year on our detailed ‘Interventions and Impacts Sheet’.

● (This document also charts impacts of all of our Pupil Premium grant funded interventions).

● Unfortunately due to the COVID crisis, there are many activities that were planned or in the process of being planned for the Spring and Summer terms- these will hopefully all be able to take place next year, making 2020-21 even more enriching for our pupils.
