The KS1 Award is a fully resourced leadership and character education programme where pupils consider the needs of their local community and build habits of helping others.
The Award has strong links to SMSC, British Values, PSHE, Character Education, Citizenship, RE and SIAMS.
The Award costs £12 per pupil + VAT. This includes access to all of the online teaching and learning materials, a Young Leaders Passport, set of stickers and certificate on completion for each pupil, a school completion certificate and training and support for participating teachers.
Pupils were inspired to help their local Foodbank after learning about its increased need at Christmas. They organised a ‘Christmas Fun Day’ for their school where pupils brought in donations for Christmas hampers for the Foodbank and were overwhelmed with donations creating almost 50 hampers!
" The children are far more aware of how they can help others on a large scale through supporting charities and on a small scale with everyday small acts of kindness. Through the Award, foundations have been laid to make compassionate citizens of the future. "
