  • The Duke of Edinburgh's Award Barking and Dagenham Report 2015/16
    LONDON BOROUGH OF BARKING AND DAGENHAM The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Barking and Dagenham Report 2015/16 Contents Introduction 3 What’s it all about? 6 Headline statistics 8 New participants 10 Awards achieved 11 Growth 12 Completion rate 14 Case studies 16 Gold Award Forum 20 Participant Demographics 21 I am pleased to present the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Annual Statistical Report for 2015/16 which details levels of engagement and attainment by young people in the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham. As the report demonstrates, the scale of DofE activity in Barking and Dagenham has increased significantly over the last two years, with more young people than ever before taking part in our programmes. Taking part in DofE activities helps young people to grow and develop, preparing them for both life and work. The balanced programme of activities develops the whole person – the mind, body and soul, in an environment of social interaction and team working. Participants learn to be independent, organised and confident. They learn to act as leaders and team members whilst giving back to their communities, taking part in physical activity, learning new skills and embarking on adventurous expeditions. These factors and positive influences makes a Duke of Edinburgh’s Award more valued and sought after by colleges, universities and employers than ever before. In a borough so affected by child poverty and relative deprivation, it is hugely encouraging that opportunities for young people to engage in DofE programmes are so prevalent. The growth in Barking and Dagenham is due in no small part to the hard work and dedication contributed by teachers, youth leaders, volunteers and senior leadership teams.
