Waltham Forest College

We are incredibly proud to celebrate our learners who have achieved their Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award.

This milestone marks the culmination of their inspiring journey from Silver to Gold, which included challenging expeditions through the rugged peaks of Snowdonia and the Lake District.
Throughout the programme, our learners demonstrated remarkable determination and a strong sense of community. They generously volunteered their time to support local and national causes, contributed to charitable initiatives, and took part in events such as the local 5K in aid of Richard House Children's Hospice.

Their success is a true testament to the value of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. Many of our participants have already secured positions in emergency services apprenticeships and gained places at higher education institutions.

We commend their dedication and are extremely proud of all they have achieved.

Thank you to all the employers who joined us for this morning’s Employer Breakfast Event for Apprenticeships.

Today was all about celebrating the incredible partnerships we have with employers and the vital role they play in shaping the future workforce. We hosted insightful roundtable discussions on how apprenticeships offer a powerful pathway for young people to gain real-world experience, develop the skills that matter most to industry, and contribute to boosting London’s economy.

A special thank you to all the employers who pledged their support. We look forward to growing these partnerships and creating even more opportunities together.
