16/10/2025Primary Outreach
At Waingels, we believe that education is about more than just lessons – it’s about belonging, thriving and succeeding together. That’s why outreach is an important part of what we do at Waingels.
We love working with local primary schools to offer enrichment opportunities that spark curiosity, build confidence and prepare pupils for the future. Whether it’s challenging the most able, easing the nerves about the move to secondary school or just creating fun memories, our outreach programme is designed to make every child feel included and inspired.
This page outlines the different things that we offer. Some of which are booked directly by your child’s primary schools whilst others, such as the masterclasses, are booked directly by parents.
Read on to find out what’s on offer.
