Silver DofE Expedition

Silver - 7 days

Are you struggling to fit in an silver expedition offer into curriculum time? Could you do with an extra set of hands to support? Do you want to provide a more challenging experience but don't have the man power, experience or qualifications?  - We'd love to have a conversation.


School staff are welcome to attend as pastoral support but are not part of our staff ratios.   Not sure what to expect? Read our School Staff Guide.
