WHAT
WE DO
We run a wide range of projects for children and young people including art exhibitions, poetry festivals, debating and spelling competitions and science exhibitions to find our schools' most promising young engineers. We also offer a broad range of courses for adults. Whether child or adult, our initiatives are about helping people reach the best of their ability.
PROGRAMMES & PROJECTS.
In partnership with our schools we plan, fund and deliver programmes and projects to support everyone in our community.
See our recent projects below.
'Making a Mark'
'Making a Mark' was funded by a grant from the Paul Hamlyn Foundation Teacher Development Fund. The 2-year programme was delivered in partnership with Bow Arts, an arts and education charity. 'Making a Mark' was designed to equip teachers with the tools to embed visual arts-based learning in their schools and to positively impact both pupils' learning opportunities and language development.
Secondary STEM Enrichment Day
ETSP's 'Big Bang @ Chace Community School' is an annual 2-day STEM event delivered in partnership with Chace Community School and Engineering UK's 'Big Bang @ School' programme. The overall aim of the event is to provide an inspiring learning opportunity showcasing STEM to children and young people who would otherwise have limited opportunity to participate in such events. It is an ambitious, exciting and engaging event; around 18 Enfield Primary schools participate in day one and Secondary students from year 7 through to year 12 take part in day two.
ReMARKable Art
'ReMARKable Art' was designed to cascade the learning from the 'Making a Mark' CPDL programme and promote arts-based learning in the classrooms of all ETSP schools. The programme launches in Autumn 2023 and will conclude later in the year.
Look out for our upcoming pupil exhibition in Spring 2024!
