Wider Curriculum & Personal Development

At Heathcote’s Sixth Form, we recognise that education extends beyond the classroom, encompassing personal growth, well-being, and a holistic approach to development. Our commitment to nurturing well-rounded individuals is reflected in our Wider Curriculum & Personal Development initiatives

PIE Lessons

Engage in informative and supportive tutorial lessons that cover essential aspects of personal development. Our dedicated fortnightly sessions explore diverse topics such as career planning, university and apprenticeship guidance, mental well-being, and exam skills. These lessons aim to equip pupils with valuable life skills, fostering responsibility and awareness in a rapidly changing world.

Sports and Activities

Embrace a healthy and active lifestyle through our sports and activities programme. Heathcote provides access to a fully-equipped gym and organises weekly sports sessions to promote physical well-being. We believe that a healthy body contributes to a healthy mind, and our initiatives support pupils in maintaining balance and vitality in their lives.

Clubs and Projects

Participate in intellectually stimulating and socially enriching clubs and projects. Join the Debate Club to sharpen critical thinking and communication skills, explore the world of cinema with our Film Club, or make a positive impact through the Envision Project—a social action initiative that encourages pupils to contribute to meaningful causes and develop leadership abilities.

Academic Boosters

Receive personalised academic support to enhance your learning journey. Our booster programmes include one-to-one and small group tutoring sessions tailored to address specific academic needs. We also utilise the Up Learning online revision platform for STEM subjects, providing pupils with additional resources and interactive tools to reinforce their understanding. Whether you require assistance with complex concepts, exam preparation, or additional challenges, our experienced educators are here to guide you toward success.

At Heathcote Sixth Form, we are dedicated to fostering both academic achievement and personal development, preparing our pupils for a bright future.
