Wider Curriculum
At Down Ampney, we aim to expand and enrich children’s experiences and view of the world through a range of exciting, fun, and unique experiences. Personal development is of utmost importance, and children have many opportunities to partake in a wide variety of enriching experiences. Developing their cultural capital gives them a fuller understanding of the world around them. Throughout their time at Down Ampney, we ensure that all children have the opportunity to engage with live music, attend the theatre, meet authors, visit museums, participate in inspirational sporting events, and interact with individuals from inspiring professions such as explorers and university professors.
The documents below gives you a snapshot of the activities children have participated in over the last two years.
Ultimately, our values and the way we do things form the foundation of the education students get at Down Ampney. These special moments can’t be planned or made; they just happen. The character of our school grows from the time we spend together; and what a time we had on our recent end of year residential; belonging, empowering and succeeding together. View our residential Padlet to share in the fun.
