Duke of Edinburgh Programme
The majority of our students choose to engage with the Duke of Edinburgh programme with the Bronze Award being achieved in year 10 and the Silver Award in year 11. Due to the fantastic development of this element of the co-curricular programme over the past few years, our team are in the process of introducing the Gold Award for future year 12 students.
