The extensive range of extra-curricular opportunities offered to pupils promotes their personal development, sporting excellence and cultural enrichment.
We strongly encourage pupils to lead clubs and activities for others. Pupils have a well-developed sense of responsibility and the opportunity to run a club is a unique aspect of Churchfields Junior School.
In this club pupils work to achieve Arts Award Explore, which is an Entry Level 3 qualification on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF). They
will participate in, and keep a log of different arts experiences and develop a personal response about what they have learned. When complete they receive an Arts Award Explore certificate.
