Choosing Activities
• Think about what you already do or would
like to start.
• Choose things from the list or check with
us first.
• You need to spend at least 1 hour per
week for 13 weeks (3 month section) or 26
weeks (6 month section).

Collecting evidence
• For each section you need to collect some
simple evidence of what you have done
and upload it onto your eDofE account
using the website.
• We would like to see:
– A list of dates with a brief description of what
you did
– At least 1 photo (max 5) showing you in action

Being Assessed
• You also need to find an assessor for each
section – this is someone who has some
knowledge of what you are doing and can say
that you have made progress.
• You will ask them to agree your goals at the start
and write a brief report on the form in your
welcome pack at the end of the time period
• They may or may not be a person you see every
week as you carry out the activity.
• They cannot be your parent, sibling or
grandparent.

What happens on the

and provide very well qualified and experienced
leaders and assessors.

through the countryside which they have
planned. They need to work as a team.
• They are met by CTS leaders along the way
• When they reach the campsite, they put up the
tents they have carried and cook a meal using a
trangia stove.
