The KS2 Award is a fully resourced leadership and character education programme where pupils have practical opportunities to volunteer and help others in their community.
The Award has strong links to SMSC, British Values, PSHE, Character Education, Citizenship, RE and SIAMS.
Interactive and engaging activities include animated videos, big discussion questions, a community walk and creative challenges to serve others.
62 pupils form Richard Coates Primary School recently completed the Key Stage 2 Young Leaders Award, ensuring that their community felt connected during lockdown.
For their community action project, the Young Leaders wrote letters to their local council and made soup to be distributed by a local homeless charity, Rochdale Homeless every week for 6 weeks.
A group of Young Leaders chose to run social action projects around the time of Remembrance Day as part of their Young Leaders Award.
