Some great advice here for our DofE participants!

DofE Pupils: use this time wisely to unwind, participate in some exercise and develop a new skill. How many more pupils can we sign off on your return to school?

New Bronze Enrolment begins this week. See Mr Hills for a letter and enrolment form @MrHillsACS

Congratulations Mr D.Jones of @ACS_science on becoming a qualified Assessor at Bronze and Silver Level. He joins Mr Hills & Mrs Lyons on achieving assessors accreditation and will bring plenty of Mountaineering experience to the team 🏕

Fantastic to see some evidence being uploaded as part of your DofE journey during the summer holidays. How many pupils can achieve the “Certificate of Achievement” before the end of the year? #StriveBelieveAcheieve
