Leweston offers the Duke of Edinburgh Award at Bronze, Silver and Gold levels.
To complete the Bronze and Silver Awards participants must undertake a personal programme of activities in four sections: volunteering, physical, skills and expedition. The Gold Award is exclusive to Sixth Form and takes 12 to 18 months to achieve. As with the other levels it includes an expedition and volunteering, but exclusive to Gold is the 5-day residential section when participants have to undertake a shared activity away from home.
