COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT



Mrs Barbara Scott heads up the Community Engagement Programme.

President's Award:
Teacher in charge: Mrs B Scott 
This is a youth empowerment programme that is modelled on The Duke of Edin¬burgh’s Award where participants become involved in a variety of activities that promote self-development.
There are three different levels: Bronze (14yrs), Silver (15yrs) and Gold (16yrs), with each level requiring progressively increasing demands to complete. For each award, participants have to complete requirements in four sections, namely,
• service
• expeditions
• skills & interests
• physical recreation.
For the Gold Award, a residential project involving nights away from home is also required.
The criterion for gaining an Award is individual improvement through persistence and achievement. College has a fine tradition of involvement in this internationally recognised programme and many boys have been proud recipients of these awards. A Gold Award is regarded highly by universities and scholarship committees.

Student Sponsorship Programme:
The Student Sponsorship Programme is a South African non-profit trust that enables academically talented, low-income students to excel at the country’s best secondary schools.
SSP selects partner schools (St Andrew's College and DSG are the SSP partner schools in Grahamstown) based on:
• Matriculation rates (high school graduation rates)
• University exemption rates (university admission rates)
• Overall academic excellence
• Opportunities for broad learning experiences beyond the classroom
• Support of school leadership
• Acceptance of a critical mass of SSP Scholars annually
• Appointment of a SSP school co-ordinator
