Parents
The Challenge is an exciting opportunity for 15-16 year olds in the summer after year 11.
The Challenge will help your child gain confidence and develop their abilities. Along the way, they’ll strengthen some friendships, create new ones and enjoy an unforgettable experience.
The Challenge is:
- a way for young people to gain the skills they can’t master at school – the real world skills that employers and universities look for
- a chance for your child to gain confidence and develop their abilities
- an opportunity for your child to learn leadership, management, communication and organisational skills
