Co-Curricular Activities

The co-curricular programme at Kent College is integral to the school curriculum, and provides opportunities for students to develop their skills, talents and interests across a broad range of activities including sports, visual and performing arts, technology, leadership and service. All students are encouraged to follow a balanced programme of academic work and co-curricular activities to develop their natural talents and passions in and outside the classroom.

We offer a large selection of clubs and activities led by staff members and qualified external coaches. Activities take place before school, during lunch and after school, with some weekend commitments.
