Students from Solihull Sixth Form College participate in LGBTQ activities as part of their Student Society enrichment

Student Societies

Enrichment Overview

Being at College is not all about academic study; it is also a time to meet new people and try out new experiences. Our enrichment programme of student-led clubs and societies encourages you to widen your horizons and develop valuable skills that will complement the knowledge gained in your lessons. We encourage all students to take up an enrichment. Student societies can encompass any interest, activity, or hobby that you may have. Any student can lead a society. The only requirement is that you must have at least 5 like-minded people who want to be in your society. Student societies are organised and operated by students for students. Examples of recently run societies are Environmental Club, British Sign Language enrichment, Book Club, Craft Club, LGBTQ+ Society, Christian Society and Islamic Society to name but a few.

Why choose this enrichment?
There are many benefits of being involved in student-led societies. You can explore your interests and passions, make new friends, and get involved in many aspects of College life including being involved in events and community projects. You will develop many transferable skills such as communication, leadership, and teamwork skills which are highly valued by universities and employers.

How long will the enrichment last?
Termly or yearly depending on student interest.

How much time a week will it involve?
You can attend as often as you would like. Each society lasts approximately one hour per week.

What will it cost?
No cost.

Who can sign up?
Open to all Year 12 and 13 students.

How do I sign up?
