Co-Curricular

At Dixons Trinity Chapeltown, involvement in co-curricular electives are just as important as academic study. We provide a varied and full programme of co-curricular and extra-curricular electives.

Our partnerships include: Row Uk; Chess in Schools; Leeds Rowing Club; RJC Dance; Leeds LDM Basketball.  Music and drama are particular strengths while other clubs and societies cater for more esoteric interests. Each student in year seven to nine has access to this provision, on a fortnightly basis, to ensure that they experience a broad, balanced and fulfilling curriculum.

Each fortnight, all students in year seven to nine spend a morning or afternoon taking part in Co-Curricular. Students have the opportunity to change their electives each cycle in a range of enriching activities as part of our Autonomy approach. 

The Co-Curricular Electives available include: rowing, indoor rowing, cricket, chess, dance, drama, art, design, music, STEM, basketball and other sport. Students electing the arts deliver a showcase at the end of each cycle which also includes musical performances. All students take part in a sports showcase at the end of Cycle 3 (this is our annual sports day).

Our co-curricular offer is linked closely to the Summits which enhance and enrich the academic curriculum in order to provide each student with a sense of purpose so they become well-rounded individuals who will thrive at university, in the professional world of work and, ultimately, in life.
