Promoting Core Skills and First Aid to our cohorts
THROUGH RESILIENCE WE ACHIEVE
The Bronze Award is based on a proven model of delivery that combines physical activities, verbal communication and written work.
It is designed to help students develop teamwork, problem-solving, leadership and communication skills as well as boosting their self-esteem and confidence.
The award is a great opportunity for pupils age 8 and up, to enjoy, have fun whilst learning and gaining skills for life.
Participants who complete the award gain recognised awards in First Aid and Navigation skills, as well as a completion certificate.
Our 12 or 18 week programme gives them the time and space to explore their identity and their potential.
The programme is taught by our instructors who have 16 years of experience within education and over 50 years of military experience. We like to think that they are an inspirational role models to young people.

The CC1 (Norfolk) Bronze’s Award gives young people the opportunity to explore aspects of their character they may not have had the chance to develop so far in their school lives. The award gives pupils and understanding of what can be achieved through perseverance. It also improves motivation and encourages the development of the attributes needed to form positive relationships, including respect, empathy and trust.
