The Ridgeway Recognised by the DofE for Hours Volunteered to the Local Community

13 July 2020

Over the last year, many of our pupils have been taking part in volunteering with the assistance of the Duke of Edinburgh Organisation. Between 1st April 2019 and 31st March 2020, participants from our school have donated 1833 hours to the local community.


As a school, we’re honoured to have been recognised by the DofE themselves. This is an amazing figure and, according to the DofE summs, the total social value of these hours comes to £7,973.55. Well done to everyone who contributed!


You can see the certificate from the DofE in the download below!

Dear parents and carers,

With current news and media full of speculation and conjecture about local lockdowns and the reopening of schools in September, I want to assure you that we're poised to take any required action.

To ensure we both make better decisions, we’ll communicate any plans when it’s closer to September. This will give us time to receive guidance from the Regional Schools Commissioner, the Department for Education, and we'll have a clearer understanding of the ever-evolving local situation. Experience has taught me that making plans on uncertainty and speculation can be costly and confusing, so we won’t do this.

I’m writing this message to let you know we have matters in hand, and you are at the forefront of our thinking. We expect to know more later this month and I will update you with further information on the 21st August.

Until then, please continue to look after yourselves and your loved ones. Health, well-being, and welfare should be at the front of all that we do.

Take care,

Dr Nicholas Capstick O.B.E

CEO, The White Horse Federation
