Every Wednesday afternoon, Earlscliffe’s SCS (Sports, Culture and Service) programme gives our international community of students the space to grow beyond the classroom.
Developing the leadership, communication and confidence that will shape their futures.
Our Sports Leaders proved exactly what that looks like in practice.
Working towards their Level 2 Qualification in Community Sports they headed to Sandgate Primary School and delivered a full athletics afternoon for Year 1 and Year 2 pupils, planning every activity, leading every session and coaching younger children entirely on their own.
The feedback from Sandgate staff was outstanding.
And watching students from across the world find their voice, step up and give back to the local community?
That’s the Earlscliffe SCS programme doing exactly what it’s designed to do.
