The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award
At Bristol Brunel Academy we are proud to have a growing Duke of Edinburgh Award (DofE) program with students in Years 9 and 10 currently completing Bronze and Silver Awards.
DofE is the world’s leading achievement award for young people and is recognised by employers and universities alike. It promotes personal development through participation in this enjoyable, challenging and rewarding programme. The ethos of the award is to enable every young person to take part in the programme and succeed, no matter what background they come from.
Pupils get a chance to challenge themselves through four different sections for different lengths of time. Physical, Skill, Volunteer and Expedition. The first three sections need to be completed before the pupils will be able to do the Expedition.
Our new lead of DofE is Miss Bethan Jackson. If you have any enquiries around the award, she would be happy to hear from you ([email protected]).
The Prince’s Trust work with young people across Bristol, North Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Bath and North East Somerset. They help 11 to 30 year olds learn and earn through multiple programmes, delivering a wide range of programs and support in schools and academies.
