At Leigh Academy Rainham we pride ourselves on developing the whole child and our rich, holistic co-curriculum offer provides a wealth of opportunities for students to experience new interests, hobbies, skills, trips and activities beyond lessons. These fulfilling experiences can enrich students lives, allow friendships to blossom and nurture their confidence and self esteem. Co-curricular clubs and activities can provide students with a sense of purpose. It is a platform for them to have a voice and a safe environment in which they can truly flourish.
