Extra-curricular activities
At Dixons Cottingley Academy, we encourage students to take part in extra-curricular activities, proven to strengthen children's enjoyment of school, boost physical health and social skills, and improve academic achievement. We have a number of clubs and activities available to children to participate in outside the normal school day, these update regularly to allow children good levels of personal choice. You can find out more about the activities we offer below.  |
