Faringdon Community College offers a wide range of extra-curricular activities and after-school clubs.
There are three late buses per week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings which enable students who travel to school by bus to participate in the after school programme. These buses depart FCC at 4.30pm and are free to students who have attended one of the official activities.
Some of the many sports clubs available to students after school include:

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that students who engage in extra-curricular activities actually do better in school. In addition to the many specific clubs organised for after school, the college library is open from 8am to 4.30pm Monday to Thursdays and from 8am to 4pm on Fridays.
Throughout the year teachers also provide students with various revision and catch-up classes for most subjects as well as opportunities for students to do work in addition to their regular curriculum. In addition our school sports day takes place at the end of the summer term each year.
There are also catch-up lessons for Year 10 and 11 for ICT Coursework on the following days:

Students must remember to be aware of their personal safety. When activities are over, students should make sure they have made arrangements to be picked up if necessary and if walking home in the dark they should use a well-lit route and ideally walk with friends. Students should always let someone at home know when they are due home.
