Firstly, Thank You to all the parents, carers and students who took part in the virtual DOFE Information Evening last night. It was a lengthy presentation, but I hope you now have all the knowledge you need to make good progress with the Bronze DOFE Award.
If you missed the presentation, the following documents will be useful:
The current restrictions are making it more difficult to complete the award and as a result Duke of Edinburgh Scotland have relaxed some of their rules to allow students to complete their physical, skill and volunteering closer to home. More info can be found on the #DOFEWithADifference website.
In particular, with S3 DOFE students thinking about each of their sections, the Activities Ideas List is a good place to start.
Once registered the eDOFE account is where students upload all their evidence. If you need advice on how to use eDOFE then these eDOFE Training Videos may be useful.
Timescales going forward:
- By the end of October, Students are required to complete a registration form and pay £22 through ParentPay.
- By the end of October, students need to decide which physical, skill and volunteering they can undertake, and which section will be their 6-month section.
- By the end of May 2021, students need to have (or almost have)completed all three sections and have all evidence uploaded into their eDOFE account.
If students are unsure how to progress with their DOFE, then please see Mr Boag ASAP.
