Tutorial Weekly Enrichment Pro-Study All students attend a weekly tutorial session as part of their programme of study. Tutors provide guidance and support through each stage of the sixth form journey and are a student’s first point of contact with any concerns or queries about their studies, progress, or wellbeing at college. Tutors also monitor a student’s overall attendance and progress in their studies and supports their development as an independent learner. Enrichment is an essential part of the sixth form experience. All students are expected to engage, each week, in an enrichment activity. There are a huge range of activities to choose from including cross-college options such as sport, DofE, and performing arts; subject extension activities to develop skills beyond the curriculum; short courses to enhance wellbeing and future progression; and student-led clubs and societies. We host an Enrichment Fair at Welcome Day and the start of term so that students can find out about the different activities on offer. Pro-Study is about exploring additional subject content to develop understanding and skills beyond the regular homework set following classes. Students have four 65-minute periods of ProStudy per week, two of which are registered and supervised in one of the college’s library spaces. Pro-Study plays an important role in helping students to manage their time well and develop the independent study skills they will need to be successful in their qualifications. 360º Personal Development Activities In addition to weekly enrichment, the college provides wide-ranging personal development opportunities for students, including guest lectures and workshops, work experience, subject links with employers and higher education providers, and regular Progression Events such as careers fairs and HE talks. Collyer’s also has a long tradition of providing an exciting variety of trips and visits to inspire curiosity and bring the curriculum to life. In 2023-24 the opportunity to study American politics in Washington, undertake fieldwork in Iceland or gain insights into the travel industry in Dubai, were just some of the options available. 360º - key components www.collyers.ac.uk 14
