# Wider Learning

#### We have a comprehensive and varied Wider Learning offering for Twyford students.

Students have the opportunity to develop their skills over time by belonging to a wide range of extra-curricular clubs, activities and projects. There is a huge range of opportunities in our Specialism areas of Sports, Chaplaincy, Music, MFL and Science as well as some fantastic clubs in other subjects such as Drama, Arts, Humanities, Maths and English.

Every year there is a large-scale whole-school musical production (most recently ‘Beauty &amp; the Beast’, ‘Made in Dagenham’, Guys &amp; Dolls’ and in 2026 ‘A Night at the Musicals’ which presented extracts from a range of different shows).

A group of KS3 students worked hard last year to win the Bronze TfL Pioneers award for the school, leading projects which encourage sustainable travel, and even persuading Ealing Council to turn Twyford Crescent into a ‘school street’ to reduce traffic outside the school.

The Duke of Edinburgh Award is offered to Year 10 students (Bronze award) and Year 12 students (Silver award) and over half of each year group chooses to take part each year. Students can represent the school in a range of sports.

Students achieve positive conduct points for their involvement in extra-curricular activities and Wider Learning, and Year 12 students receive Community Service hours for committing to clubs. Clubs are run by teachers and our Year 13 Student Leaders, who offer their experience and energy in their specialism areas (for example: Problem Solving Society (STEM leaders), KS3 Conversation club to experience new languages (MFL student leaders), and KS3 Songwriting (Music student leaders).

#### Community service and Leadership roles

We have a wider ranging student leadership programme with every tutor group in Year 7-11 having a form rep and a rep in Sports, Music, Chaplaincy, Creative Arts, MFL, Enterprise, Literacy, Humanities, Environment and sustainability and STEM subjects. Students with leadership roles attend student council meetings every term. Students may wish to apply to become Peer Mentors and Twyford Ambassadors in Year 10 and Prefects in Year 11. We then have House Captain Leadership opportunities in Year 12 and of course our Senior Student Leadership Team in Year 13. All positions are applied for through completing an application form, with our Senior Student Leadership positions in Year 13 also including an interview.  Students are our greatest ambassadors and act as hosts and guides at school events, open evenings and awards ceremonies.
