Student Enrichment

Clubs and Groups

Student enrichment not only complements and supports the student’s main programme of study, but also allows our students to develop new skills, build on those they already have, maintain a healthy lifestyle, interact with other students beyond their class or tutor group, and enhance their CV or university application.

Students enjoy the wide range of enrichment activities on offer. Most students take part in activities such as football, netball and theatre trips. They make good use of the gym facilities to support their physical and mental well-being. Ofsted, 2023

Saint Francis Xavier Sixth Form College offers a rich and diverse enrichment programme delivered by our expert teachers and staff.

What Our
Students Say

The support I received from passionate teachers who pushed me to aim higher, to the tailored guidance with university applications made all the difference. SFX believed in my potential even when I doubted myself, and that encouragement gave me the confidence to pursue my ambitions. Without that foundation, I don’t think I’d be on the path to a legal career today.
