College isn’t just about A-levels—it’s about broadening your horizons, discovering new passions, and finding balance. Our diverse range of enrichment activities offers you the opportunity to develop new skills, forge friendships, and take a well-earned break from the pressures of academic life. Whether you want to explore a hobby, boost your mental well-being, or gain a qualification, there’s something for everyone.
A Wide Variety of Opportunities
We offer an exciting selection of enrichment activities, from creative outlets to career-enhancing experiences. You might find yourself writing for The Campus Collective (our student newspaper), debating topics in C@KE (Conversation at King Eds), or hosting discussions on Campus Conversations (our college podcast). If you prefer something active, why not try Pilates, Cricket, or Pickleball? For those who enjoy hands-on activities, we have Crochet, and Calligraphy. Or, if you want to challenge yourself intellectually, join the Econ Forum, learn British Sign Language, or prepare for medical school with UCAT Prep, Med Soc or Dent Soc.
Qualifications and UCAS-Boosting Enrichment
We also offer enrichments that provide qualifications or UCAS points, helping to enhance your personal statement or CV:
- Environmental Leadership Programme – Get involved in sustainability initiatives and make a real impact.
- Sports Leadership Programme – An accredited award through the Leadership Skills Foundation

Enrichment is an essential part of your college experience, offering you the chance to step outside your academic studies, meet like-minded people, and develop skills that could shape your future. Details of available activities for 2026-2027 will be shared in the autumn term via email and at our Freshers event in September.
