The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is far more than an extracurricular activity — it is an opportunity for pupils to challenge themselves, gain independence and create lasting memories.
Through DofE, pupils develop:
- Confidence
- Leadership
- Resilience
- Teamwork
- Communication skills
- Problem-solving abilities
The award is highly respected by universities, colleges, employers and apprenticeship providers because it demonstrates commitment, determination and a willingness to step outside of your comfort zone.
Many pupils also make new friendships, discover new interests and achieve things they never thought possible.
