Duke of Edinburgh Award

The Duke of Edinburgh Award programmes are open to 14 to 24 year olds. The Award is delivered in Jersey’s schools and youth organisations by Directly Licensed Centres. Students can complete an award in the bronze, silver and gold categories.  The DofE programme at Grainville School is led by Gareth Wood, Assistant Headteacher  g.wood@grainville.sch.je

To achieve the award, students will need to complete a personal programme of activities in four sections (or five if students wish to achieve the gold award):

• volunteering: helping people or the community
• physical activity: getting fitter
• developing skills
• going on an expedition
• taking part in a residential activity (gold award only)

There’s a lot of choice, so students can tailor the programme to their individual interests.

Students pick up new experiences, friends and talents that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
