Confident Performers, Rich Rewards The Wider Life of School Traditional Foundations, 21 st Century Education 07 Extra-curricular activities are vitally important at King James’s School. Learning is enhanced by fieldwork trips, visits to museums, art galleries, the theatre and sporting venues, the Duke of Edinburgh Award, annual ski trips to Europe, foreign language visits and various other residential trips, both in the UK and overseas. Expressive arts are a particular strength of the school; music and drama productions are performed annually and the art department showcases students’ work through a number of exhibitions each year. Our sports facilities are excellent and students can choose from a wide range of activities, both recreational and competitive. Our highly successful teams regularly compete against other schools. The school encourages participation for all through an active house system. Events run in most subject areas, the most spectacular being house drama which is organised by senior students. A wide range of extra-curricular clubs are available to all students across a range of subjects, both after school and at lunchtime across all department areas.
