ASA Enrichment Offer

ASA Enrichment Offer

Our ASA Enrichment intent is to give all learners the knowledge, experiences and cultural capital needed to succeed in life. Through our enrichment and extended-enrichment programmes, students are exposed to a rich and diverse range of internal and external opportunities, which form our ASA Enrichment Offer consisting of 6 key elements:

• Community and Leadership: Community projects and leadership opportunities at ASA and beyond, e.g. organising school events, student parliament, peer-mentoring, representing the Academy in sports events/competitions, charity projects, etc.
• Cultural: Experiences designed to increase students’ cultural knowledge, e.g. art gallery visits, play performances, contact with authors, etc.
• Enterprise: Opportunities to enrich students’ knowledge of the world of work/enterprise, e.g. Youth Enterprise, local business visits, work experience, etc.
• Heritage: Experiences to enrich students’ knowledge of their heritage, e.g. history visits, work with the Hull Minster, court visits, etc.
• Wellbeing: Opportunities to increase students’ wellbeing, e.g. mindfulness training, revision/study skills workshops, sports/physical activity, etc.
• World: Experiences designed to enrich students’ knowledge of the wider world, e.g. school visits abroad, the Mandarin Excellence Programme, etc.
