Why Take Part?

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.
