Duke of Edinburgh

#Worldready

In a world where there are 1.2 billion young people aged 15 to 24, youth equate to 16% of the global population. Although the numbers and the geography of world is big, the world our youth live in can be seen as smaller due to connectivity. 

The Duke of Edinburgh program is now run in 144 different nations. Regardless of where our youth are completing their awards, they are all completing it under the same structure of the Award Program. 

Their opportunities are diverse, but they are coming together with common goals across the globe. The skills they are learning are driving change within themselves, which in turn will promote changes around the world.

We look forward to hearing of the connections our Duke of Edinburgh students have made with other program participants in their future endeavours.

Four Key Sections to the Duke of Edinburgh Award

The Duke of Edinburgh Award Program is set up with three levels (Bronze, Silver and Gold) and each level has four key sections that all participants need to complete. Participants must meet the minimum requirements for each section and must show regular commitment to all of their activities (Physical Recreation, Skills, Service) with an average time of one hour per week or two hours per fortnight.

If your son or daughter is interested in taking part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award and are aged 14 or over, please contact Mr Nick Tait or Mrs Natalie Campbell for further information.
