Young Leader Award

First step towards leadership skills

The Young Leader Award offers learners the first stepping stone in leadership skill development. Learners gain experience of organising and leading small games and activities for their peers, and are supported to start the development of the skills needed to take on greater responsibilities.

The award is recommended for learners aged 11+ years and takes approximately between 10-12 hours to deliver.

Through this fun and flexible programme, learners will build their confidence and resilience, and develop their leadership skills.
