Description

This episode considers extra-curricular activities and what effective provision looks like in the secondary school.

What are the common challenges when delivering extra-curricular provision? What kind of activities work best? How do we schedule these activities – when and where? How do we ensure equitable access and do we 'target' students?

We also discuss how we can staff extra-curricular provision and encourage staff to take-on activities. And how do we encourage student take-up?

How can our provision support a 'broad and balanced' curriculum offer? What role do external partnerships have to play? And should we quality-assure and evaluate our provision?
