Enrichment
Enrichment is an integral part of the student experience at LSFC, offering fun and exciting opportunities for students outside of their academic programme.
Enrichment activities provide a great way to relax, build friendships, develop your skills, and enhance your personal development.
Get involved
Luton Sixth Form College offers a huge range of opportunities to get involved with activities outside of your main courses, including sport clubs and societies, interest groups, super-curricular activities and opportunities to gain valuable work experience. Taking part in such activities equips you with a broad range of transferrable skills which will prepare you for life after College and make your CV and personal statement look great.
For example, taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award will equip you with skills such as problem solving, perseverance and ability to work as part of a team. Picking up a beginners’ language will demonstrate your academic curiosity. Joining one of our sports teams will grow your communication and leadership skills. Finally, taking part in one of our many work placement and volunteering schemes will provide you with those all-important experiences that will set you apart from others in a work or university interview.
Take a look at the opportunities listed below and get involved.
