Extracurricular Activities at Alsop High School

At Alsop High School, we believe that learning goes beyond the classroom. Our extensive extra-curricular programme is a key part of Personal Development and provides students with exceptional opportunities to develop new skills, build confidence and discover their passions.

Our clubs and activities run before school, during break and lunchtime, and after school, ensuring that all students can access a wide range of opportunities. From sports teams and health and fitness clubs to performing arts, STEM, computing, debating and social issues, our offer is rich in variety. Whether students wish to stay active, explore their creativity or challenge their thinking, there is something for everyone.

Participation in extra-curricular activities helps students to develop important life skills such as teamwork, leadership, resilience and problem-solving. It also allows them to form new friendships, showcase their talents and achievements, and gain valuable experiences through competitions, performances, trips and, where appropriate, international visits. These opportunities enhance students’ confidence, sense of responsibility and role within the school and wider community, leaving a lasting impact on their educational journey.

We encourage all students to take part in at least one extra-curricular activity each week to support their engagement with learning and personal growth. Our extra-curricular timetable, available below, provides full details of the clubs on offer. Students with questions or ideas for new activities are encouraged to speak to their form tutor, a member of staff or speak to the staff at the Student Voice Drop In Session - Tuesday Lunch times.

Get involved, challenge yourself, and make the most of your time at Alsop High School!
