Three times an academic year, students get to experience an off timetable Extended Learning Day that is centred around important Tring School themes.
The sessions delivered on these days complement the learning that takes place in subject lessons and requires your child to apply their skills in new and different situations. Integral to this has been our Tring School Charter which requires students to attend all Extended Learning Days and utilise the skills of communication, curiosity, determination and independence. Students are able to explore a range of sessions dedicated to enhancing their perspectives, developing their skills and ultimately letting them explore outside of the curriculum.
Last academic year's themes included 'Futures,' 'Diversity, Inclusion & Equality,' and 'Awe & Wonder.' Check out the video below to get a flavour for some of the fantastic activities that take place and some of the students feedback on the day.
