Gledhow Primary School

Gledhow has a comprehensive programme of curriculum enrichment to ensure that all children receive the opportunity to explore units of work through practical and experiential activities. Enrichment happens across the curriculum and provides opportunities to develop independent learning skills and reach for higher level learning objectives requiring practical application of knowledge and skills.

Throughout the year we offer a wide range of Enrichment Clubs to all children from Years 1-6, including Reception children in the Summer Term once they have had chance to settle into school life.

Since September 2019 we have been able to offer over 300 places on different Enrichment Clubs that have enabled lots of children to take part in different experiences and learn new skills. We have been able to offer clubs such as African Drumming and Choir, Baking, Football, Mad Science, Film Club, Gymnastics, Atheltics, Spanish, Craft and Card Making to name a just a few! Our clubs are happily run by the staff at the school and by external agencies that we bring in to provide specialist coaching. 

All Enrichment Clubs run on a termly basis and places are advertised and allocated the half term prior to the club starting.  All communication about Enrichment Clubs is done via School Ping so please make sure that you are registered if you would like to receive this information and other important information. Enrichment Clubs run Monday-Friday from 3.10pm-4.10pm, the children are brought directly from their classrooms to the school Library where the club leader takes the register and then takes the children to the club. Please be aware that within the term that Enrichment Clubs are run we do not run any clubs the first week of each term, so the number of sessions may vary from term to term. Specific information about dates, costs and equipment needed will be included in the initial Ping communication about the clubs.
