Year 11 pupils are encouraged to apply for the National Citizen Service residential, which takes place after GCSE exams have finished.
Pupils can choose between these five day programmes:
*"Boss it" - business skills
*"Change it" - issues facing society
*"Live it" - survival skills and life hacks
All residentials are on an outdoors activity campus, so activities such as kayaking and climbing will be offered. Pupils can choose to participate or opt out of activities as they wish. Year 11s can ask to be placed with friends from either Springfield or other schools but will also meet new people.
This is free for those pupils listed as pupil premium, who receive free school meals or have an EHCP. The cost can also be discounted, depending on personal circumstances. The full cost is £95, completely all inclusive.
