Trips & Activities

Another essential element of our extracurricular provision is our Trips and Visits programme in which we expect every student to sign up to one trip in both year 12 and 13. We believe in the importance of expanding our students’ horizons through a wide and extensive range of educational visits and increasing their cultural capital. 

Each year, our students begin year 12 by taking part in Nuclear Races and visiting a Russell Group University. Our Induction Programme focuses heavily on students getting to know their peers and looking towards life beyond the Poly. At the end of year 12, our students also have a week dedicated to trips and activities to support their application to university, apprenticeship and jobs.   

We try and expand pupils’ horizons beyond London to give them an appreciation of the world beyond their normal environment.
