What is enrichment in schools?
Enrichment is not a necessary requirement for schools to provide to their students, however, it is highly recommended by the Department of Education and Ofsted in order to encourage personal development and extra-curricular education which ultimately aids academic success.
With enrichment activities, children learn more about themselves. From the topics that interest them to the talents they discover. Children of all ages are developing rapidly, both mentally and physically, and enrichment provides avenues for them to experiment and find subjects – whether academic or not – which appeal to them.
Regardless of whether a student finds inspiration towards a career path or becomes infatuated with a new interest, enrichment workshops are an exciting day to pencil into the calendar. Our enrichment activities are designed to challenge students so that they can develop their ‘soft skills’, like independence, determination, self-esteem and creativity. Furthermore, these activities are opportunities to help children progress towards becoming capable citizens, as we equip them to learn responsibility, respect and empathy.
From learning about other cultures and aspects of life they may previously be unfamiliar with, to engaging in team projects and taking the lead on their newfound interests, enrichment has the potential to enhance the education of every student, so that they can find the motivation to succeed both inside and outside of the classroom
Start your school’s Enrichment programme
When starting your school’s enrichment programme, there are a lot of key points to consider for which we use our experience to make this process as quick and hassle-free as possible.
Step-by-step, here are some of the things involved in making your schools enrichment programme a success:
- Consider demand - There are various types of enrichment classes, try a student or parent survey to find out what would gain the most interest.
- Research competition - Are there similar programmes nearby? Consider the pros and cons of these classes
- Who does your programme appeal to? Perhaps a specific age group or those with a particular interest.
- Who will run the programme and what are their credentials? Specialist providers such as ourselves will ensure that credibility is catered for.
- When will it take place? Is there a certain time of year that would be best?
- Where will it take place? Do you have the capacity to conduct the programme on school grounds or will you need to book a suitable facility?
- How will you fund and organise your programme? Is this something that you have the resources to dedicate towards or are you best outsourcing to professionals? Make sure you consider the expenses and whether or not you will need to charge for the session.

What are the academic benefits of enrichment for students?
While the progress students make in the classroom can vary drastically, an enrichment programme can benefit both the lowest and highest performing pupils in their academic career.
For those that struggle to focus on classwork, the right enrichment activity can provide inspiration towards a particular area of their education that motivates them to succeed. On the other hand, those who tend to read ahead and excel among their classmates can benefit hugely from an activity that provides a real challenge, whether that be academic or not.
Regardless of a child’s academic standard, enrichment activities provide the opportunity to discover new skills and challenge them to progress both inside and outside of the classroom.
What are the different types of enrichment curriculum?

What enrichment ideas can teachers implement?
- • Peer mentoring – see how students fare delivering to their classmates in front of the whiteboard!
- • Key Stage and year group collaboration – whether it be competing with each other, working together, or delivering to one another, giving students the opportunity to mix with either younger or older students can be exciting and is beneficial towards their social development.
- • External speakers – Having a qualified professional deliver a course on a certain subject provides students with a much more comprehensive understanding, as well as the potential to be inspired.
