“Enrichment in schools and colleges encompasses a wide range of activities and experiences that exist beyond the curriculum, either linked directly to the curriculum (co-curricular), or covering skills, knowledge and activities that work in addition to it (extra-curricular).“

“Enrichment can support children and young people with their personal development, allowing them to explore their interests, try new activities and have fun, alongside developing skills and knowledge that can help with transitions and future readiness.”

The DfE Enrichment Framework focuses on five areas, one of which is:
Arts and Culture:

“for example, taking part in and having live experience of music, art, dance, theatre, other expressive arts, visits to museums and galleries.“

“Enrichment may be delivered within timetabled lesson time or outside of it (for example, lunchtime, before or after school or college, weekend events). Enrichment activities may be delivered by school or college staff, or external providers, and can include peer leadership with support and guidance from staff.”
