Co-curricular
Beyond the classroom our rich co-curricular offer supports students on a journey of self-discovery. A diverse range of clubs and societies enriches, opening students’ minds to the endless possibilities that exist.
Although we educate bright students for bright futures, we value their happiness, encouraging them to realise their passions, understand their self-worth, and own their vulnerabilities, in order to unleash their potential.
As Shakespeare notes “Pleasure and action make the hours seem short.” The unique offer at Verulam ensures that students enjoy a range of opportunities that make their time here seem to fly by, and eagerly return each day to experience more.
Our Verulam community teaches and encourages students to be inclusive, celebrating both our differences whilst cherishing that which binds us together. Verulam is a school for all types of individuals, where all are celebrated and supported to thrive. In every sphere, we encourage students to broaden their horizons, and give them every opportunity to take flight. If a student has an interest that is not yet fulfilled, we’ll help them find a way of pursuing it.
