Duke of Edinburgh Award

The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is a challenging and progressive programme of activities for young people aged 14 - 25. It has 50 years of experience with over 100,000 young people taking up the Award each year and is well recognised within the education sector. It gives opportunities for personal development through community and social involvement, adventure and the discovery of new talents and interests. In our experience all those pupils who have enrolled so far have enthused about the amount of fun they have had.
