Enrichment Day Information – Townsend Church of England School

I am writing to provide detailed information about our upcoming Enrichment Day, which will take place on Friday, 18th July 2025.

This is an exciting opportunity for pupils to participate in a range of activities, both on and off-site, designed to reward positive behaviour and engagement throughout the year.

Format of the Day

· A variety of activities will be available, including off-site trips and on-site experiences.

· Some activities will be free of charge, while others will have a cost attached.

· Pupils will be able to choose their activity, but sign-up will be tiered based on conduct points.

· Places on each trip will be limited. If a trip is full when you try to sign up, unfortunately, you will need to choose a second option.

Sign-Up Process

To encourage positive behaviour and recognise pupils who consistently meet our expectations, sign-up will be structured as follows:

· Top 30% of each year group (highest conduct points) – Sign up from Monday 2nd June.

· Next 30% of each year group – Sign up from Wednesday 4th June.

· Remaining pupils – Sign up from Monday 9th June.

· Deadline for all sign-ups: Friday 13th June.

Any pupil who has not signed up by the deadline will be automatically allocated a free space in an on-site activity.

Payment must be made at the time of sign-up via School Gateway for any activities that require a fee.

Unfortunately, any pupil who has negative conduct points at the time of sign-up will not be allowed to attend off-site activities. These pupils will be required to remain in school for an on-site activity.

Maintaining High Standards

To ensure a positive and safe experience for all pupils:

· Any pupil who receives negative conduct points between sign-up and the trip date will be removed from their chosen activity.

· This applies to both on-site and off-site activities.

· If a pupil is removed from a trip, any payments made may be non-refundable, depending on the provider’s terms and conditions.

Supporting All Pupils

To provide a fresh opportunity for pupils to engage positively, we have reset all negative conduct points to zero for the purpose of Enrichment Day sign-up. This reset took place from Monday 10th March. However:

· This reset is only for sign-up purposes.

· All other conduct points, including positive points, will remain unchanged.

· Negative conduct points will still be recorded on pupils’ behaviour records.

We hope this system will reward pupils who have demonstrated positive behaviour while also giving those who may have struggled earlier in the year a chance to participate.

Further details, including a list of available activities and costs, will be shared in due course. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for your continued support.
