Co-Curricular

At Westholme, co-curricular life is where passions are discovered, skills are sharpened, and confidence flourishes. From clubs and societies to trips, performances, and competitions, our wide-ranging activities give every pupil the chance to explore new interests, embrace challenges, and enjoy experiences that will stay with them for life.

At Westholme School, we pride ourselves in placing such emphasis on the acquisition of the 21st century essential skills in a happy and fulfilling environment. It is not just qualifications that will enable our young people to thrive in life, but it is who they become as a person, their character, leadership, communication skills and a sense of purpose.

Our students stand out head and shoulders above their peers because when they leave our INSPIRED Sixth Form at 18 years old, alongside incredible academic rigour, they have enjoyed a wonderfully enriching educational experience. For over 100 years, we have believed in offering our students the time to develop their talents, the opportunity to explore their passions and, as the late Sir Ken Robinson would have said, the experiences to find their element.

We continue to offer unequalled provision outside the classroom for our young people to acquire the 21st century essential skills through fun, excitement and enjoyment. Most clubs, societies, activities and experiences are included within our fees and are provided free of charge by our inspirational teaching staff.

Our extensive co-curricular provision is the cornerstone of our distinctive forward-thinking educational ethos and we encourage every Westholmian to think beyond their boundaries, take pleasure in challenging themselves and simply love every single minute of finding their element!
