Outreach and Partnerships

Community Outreach is an integral part of life at Marlborough and aims to continue a pupil’s education beyond the classroom. On Monday and Wednesday afternoons, the school is involved in activities that are of service to the community. The motto is ‘Enriching Lives Through Service’. It is expected that each pupil will volunteer at least 90 minutes of their time each week to their chosen activity.

Outreach enables pupils to:

• foster a culture of volunteering and a willingness to give up time and effort to benefit others without expecting reward;
• develop a sense of responsibility and compassion for those of different backgrounds and values;
• appreciate their own strengths and weaknesses and, in so doing, develop their self-esteem;
• be considerate, tolerant and respectful of others as they strive to establish new relationships within and outside the College community; and
• develop their own pupil profile ready for personal statements.
