Yr 7 & 8 Scholarship Pathway
“It’s great to have a dedicated afternoon where I can focus on my Sport Scholarship; I’ve been able to learn about nutrition and how that affects my performance and visit a local gym to understand more about strength and agility.” Daniel, Year 8
All pupils who stay on for Years 7 and 8 follow a specialist scholarship programme. Themes such as Leadership, STEM and Creative Arts are explored through dynamic, hands-on projects. These may include coaching, team-building exercises, scientific challenges, and imaginative artistic work - designed to build confidence, collaboration and initiative.
Alongside this, children gain a deeper knowledge of various disciplines while exploring beyond the classroom. They develop essential life skills - working collaboratively with peers, learning independently, and nurturing curiosity about the world around them.
With small class sizes, each programme is also able to be refined to suit individual pupil strengths and interests, helping every child to take ownership of their learning and celebrate their unique talents.
This course is both enriching and enjoyable, while continuing to prepare pupils for a wide range of scholarship opportunities, whether in Art, Drama, Music, Sport or Academics.
We warmly invite you and your family to visit Solefield to discover more about life in Years 7 and 8.
