"I can honestly say without doing my gold DofE Award I wouldn't be the confident, resilient person I am today." Niamh, DofE Participant.
EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY TO ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN DIFFERENT FORMS OF WIDER ACHIEVEMENT
We support a range of awards and achievements for many ages, which focus on Outdoor Learning and broader attainment. These include the Duke of Edinburgh’s award, Junior Award Scheme for Schools (JASS), John Muir award and Eco-schools award.
These help to develop essential skills for learning, life and work and are valuable when applying for training, college, university or jobs. Such capabilities may include being responsible, being creative, timekeeping, problem-solving, planning, negotiating, a diverse range of organisational skills and social and interpersonal skills – all of which are valuable in educational and work-related contexts.
