Opportunities

At BL6, we believe that all our students should enjoy their studies and have access to a wide range of activities outside the classroom. A core element of your studies at College will be our enrichment programme. Not only do we believe in providing a first class academic environment, but we want to offer additional experiences to help with your personal and social development.

Enrichment activities complement academic study, but also allow for the College to develop a sense of community. Enrichment activities can enhance the impression students give to future employers and are extremely valuable when applying to Higher Education. Our enrichment programme will be rich and varied and include a wide range of activities and societies for you to get involved in. There will be something to meet the needs and interests of all students, whatever you are studying or whatever your talents are.

Although the final list of enrichment courses for students to choose from will not be available until the first week of term, activities are likely to include:

• Sports – including football, rugby, netball, basketball, sports leadership awards, fitness training – there will be an opportunity for students to play in league competitions against other colleges
