Enrichment Programme

Tettenhall College is highly regarded for the breadth and depth of opportunities offered to students. A key part of this provision is delivered by our Enrichment Programme.

The Enrichment Programme takes place on a Thursday afternoon, each week during term time. The Enrichment Programme is an exciting suite of co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, which aim to broaden a student’s range of experiences, or harness existing areas of interest. Students follow one activity for the full term before choosing a new option for the start of the next term.

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award

The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award

Every year The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) inspires hundreds of thousands of young people to develop skills, resilience and self-belief. Through the DofE, they take on their own challenges, follow their passions, make a difference to their communities and discover talents that they never knew they had.

Tettenhall College is proud to offer the DofE programme to all students from Year 9 upwards, beginning with the Bronze Award and then working with pupils to allow them to progress through the Silver Award and then on to the hugely well-regarded Gold Award. An additional benefit of securing the Gold Award is that it’s completion also brings extra UCAS points.
