Duke of Edinburgh ’ s Award One of the great strengths of the school is that so many of our students take the Duke of Edinburgh ’ s Gold Award . Students new to the Sixth Form do not have to have previously completed Bronze or Silver .
Clubs and Societies From Ceramics to Volleyball , Japanese to Pride Society , there should be something for everyone and , if there isn ’ t , then students have the opportunity to set up something new themselves . This is an area where Sixth Formers are encouraged to take a leadership role and mentor younger students .
Trips There are approximately 70 residential trips ( and over 150 day trips ) on offer each year . Recent language trips include Spain , Belgium , Italy , and Cuba . There is an annual Geography field trip to Morocco , an Art trip to New York , a Physics trip to Geneva , Biology expeditions , and many more . There are two major sports tours every year , as well as music and drama tours and service trips , most recently to South Africa .
Model United Nations One of the highlights is the trip to the MUN conference in Bath . The Sevenoaks delegation is recognised as being one of the most formidable of all the schools that attend and we regularly come home with some awards .
