ECAs/ASAs

At British School of Oxford (BSO), students are offered a wide variety of Extra Curricular Activities (ECA) and After School Activities (ASAs) which allow students to explore their interests or try new activities outside of the school curriculum. ECAs are offered by internal teachers and run on campus from 2:30-3:30pm, while ASAs are offered by external service providers and run from either 2:30-3:30pm or 3:00-4:00pm.
ECAs and ASAs are not just about sports. There is an ECA or ASA for every student’s interest at BSO. A high level of interaction with friends is encouraged through a range of activities from craft and computing and photography.
BSO offers ECAs and ASAs ranging from sports like art courses, Music Club, Science Club and a range of other activities. In addition to other programmes, our students on all campuses participate in Sports Day. These events provide opportunities for every student in the school to compete in many different events
Although the some Primary and Middle BSO Schools Ares located in town and has some space constraints – this has not limited the students in their ECA and ASA choices.
Please note that ECAs are free of charge, while ASAs are paid activities that are run by external service providers.

How are ECAs/ASAs assigned?

We offer equal opportunity for all students to participate in our ECA and ASA programme. We use an online sign up form and responses are collected using Google Forms. We make every effort to ensure that every student is accepted to an ECA/ASA. Students may participate in a maximum of 2 ECAs per semester. For ASAs, there are no limits to the number of courses a student may partake in.
The BSO Extra Curricular Activities (ECA) programme is the heart of the Activity component of our Creativity, Activity and Service requirement for all BSO students. Students in the Primary & Middle School have a wide variety of activities to choose from including community service, special interest clubs, varsity sports teams and some students even start their own ECA. BSO participates in the National & International Schools sports activities.
