Thursday Pursuits

Formerly known as: Curriculum Enhancement Programme

Overview

As you are aware, on week 2 Thursday afternoons, conventional school is replaced with ‘Curriculum Enhancement’; an afternoon of enrichment activities run by specialists. These opportunities are intended to broaden your child’s experience of the curriculum and introduce them to new skills, knowledge and experiences. However, from September 2024, a limited provision is being offered from 2.45-3.35pm or 2.45-4.30pm. Alternatively, your child can leave school at 2.45pm to continue their learning from home for the afternoon.

If you opt for your child to remain in school, a one-off, non-refundable, annual payment of £30 is required and students must commit to attending every session. Failure to attend regularly hinders progress and development and denies other students a chance to participate.

Absence Reporting

Parents are urged to encourage their child to attend every session to benefit from the programme. If your child is absent, or due to be absent, please email Ms Noreen on t.noreen@ast.kevibham.org .uk at least 2 days in advance. Last minute email requests will not be accepted unless there is an emergency.
