Statistical Report 2015-16 Statistical report 2015-16 The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award is exceeding all expectations in Lambeth. More young people than ever before are taking part in and completing our valued programme. It has been an exceptional year. Schools in Lambeth recognise the importance of offering the DofE to their pupils. Participation in a DofE programme accelerates progress and attainment by encouraging independent learners and enhancing resilience, self-esteem and problem solving abilities. The link between DofE programmes and the new Ofsted framework is therefore an obvious one, and it is of little surprise that schools are opting to embrace the DofE in their wider offer. The diversity of organisations who offer the programme and the levels offered within existing centres have both been expanded. I am excited to be welcoming a number of new schools, colleges and youth groups to the programme and I am strongly encouraged by the increase in take up of the Gold award throughout the borough. The result is that the benefits of the DofE are available to more young people than ever before and is demonstrative of one of our guiding principles: the DofE is achievable by all. Whilst we are delighted with an increased demand and continued growth, it is important that we understand the pressure that this puts on our resources. The growth in the DofE and the progress that has been shown over such a small period of time is indicative of the potential within the borough. Continued investment into the skills and structure of our staff teams is essential to ensure young people are supported to complete their whole award and realise their potential. Finally, the growth in Lambeth would not have been achieved without the professional support from headteachers, teachers, youth workers, volunteers and managers who have dedicated their time to make DofE a success. It would be remiss of me not to take this opportunity to thank them for their hard work and the invaluable contribution they make in supporting the achievements and personal development of young people. Rob Clark Operations Manager - London Region Contents Introduction 2 What’s it all about? 4 Lambeth’s headline statistics 6 New participants 8 Awards achieved 9 Completion rate 10 Growth 12 Appendix: participant demographics 15 Lambeth has a lower achievement of 5 A* - C grades at GCSE than the London and the national average. The crime rate per population is one in ten, considerably higher than the national average. The Duke of Edinburgh's Award is highly valued by universities and employers and promotes community cohesion. Childhood obesity in Lambeth is higher than that across London and the national average. 64% of young people feel that as a result of DofE they are better at sport or physical activity with 61% stating that doing DofE has allowed them to try a new sport or physical activity People in Lambeth have a lower life satisfaction rate and are more anxious than the national average. Over 70% of DofE participants report greater feelings of self-esteem and greater confidence through their engagement with their programmes. Source: data.london.gov.uk; University of Northampton: Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Impact Research What’s it all about? The DofE charity The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award supports over 275,000 people aged 14 to 24 every year. Its ethos is to enable every young person of every background to take part in programmes and succeed, regardless of any barriers. DofE programmes DofE programmes are at one of three progressive levels which, when successfully completed, lead to a Bronze, Silver or Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. There are four sections at Bronze and Silver level and five at Gold: Volunteering: undertaking service to individuals or the community Physical: improving in an area of sport, dance or fitness activities Skills: developing practical and social skills and personal interests Expedition planning, training for and completing an adventurous journey in the UK or abroad At Gold level, participants must do an additional fifth Residential section, which involves staying and working away from home doing a shared activity. Who can do it? Anyone aged between 14 and 24 can take part in DofE programmes. It is non-competitive and allows any young person to take part, regardless of their background or personal circumstances. “Running expeditions for students is a real joy. There’s lots to do, but seeing them out in the countryside on their own for the first time, and seeing how they develop is an absolute pleasure, and well worth the effort.” Benedict Fogarty, DofE Manager at Evelyn Grace Academy Photo: Evelyn Grace Academy Expedition Why should young people do their DofE? Enhances formal education The DofE enhances young people’s formal education by enabling them to develop the whole person – the mind body and soul – in an environment of social interaction and team working. Inclusive and balanced programme The programme is achievable by all young people regardless of ability, gender, background or location. Whoever they are or wherever they are from, young people can enjoy unique experiences and rewards which are relevant to their starting point. Personal programme Taking part in their DofE means the participant designs a programme entirely of their own choosing, picking activities based around their interests, passions and strengths. Enhances employability The skills and personal attributes developed through participation are recognised by employers, colleges and universities. Research with Gold Award holders showed: 79% developed leadership skills 83% improved team working and tolerance of others 93% 85% gained confidence of young people feel under pressure to demonstrate 61% continued with volunteering they can be an ‘all-rounder’ 74 % developed self-esteem. in the workplace The United Learning Trust (ULT) surveyed key organisations, such as Eurotunnel plc, Honda (UK) Ltd and Tesco about their graduate recruitment. Out of 29 activities undertaken at school these companies rated The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award as most important.

  • Education and Learning Strategy 2018/22
    Education and Learning Strategy 2018/22 101240 (10.18) Welcome Welcome to Lambeth’s Education and Learning Strategy 2018–22 which looks ahead to the next few years and outlines our shared ambition for our learners of all ages. It has been developed in partnership between schools, other educational establishments and the Council. We want Lambeth to continue to be at the forefront of change and improvement in education, retaining good relationships between education providers and the Council and building on our collective strengths and achievements. We have strong partnerships between schools, colleges, neighbouring authorities, families, local communities and the Council that enable us to work towards securing an autonomous and self- improving education system. This commitment to raising standards is supported by a sound infrastructure of early years provision in our childcare, nursery school and children centre provision. Our charter for education and learning encapsulates our aspirations and ways of working together (see appendix 1, page 8). The overwhelming majority of Lambeth schools have chosen to retain their close working relationship with the Council. In 2017 the Lambeth Schools Partnership was launched to sustain high quality outcomes and excellent teaching and learning across the borough. The partnership is united in its vision that schools and other education settings should build on an existing culture of collaborative working to enable all the borough’s children and young people to experience the best possible education opportunities, outcomes and life chances. This Strategy is aligned to the overall role of the Council in supporting growth, improving community resilience, enhancing place and providing support to the vulnerable.
