The Duke of Edinburgh is an activity that is solely motivated by the student’s enthusiasm however a member of staff is on hand to assist and oversee the students’ progress. The students are responsible for preparing and organising the activities that are required to complete the Award as set out by the Duke of Edinburgh scheme.
The Student Representative Council is an elected group from Years 1 to 12, who represent the voice of the students. They meet weekly to discuss issues affecting students and solutions to these issues. The role of the SRC is to organise events which promote a positive school environment. The SRC is elected by the students during the first few weeks of school each year.
