We are now at the end of the 6 month period, meaning you have ALL completed at least one section (Volunteering or Skill) You MUST make sure you have completed your outline on eDofE for this section You MUST upload at least 5 pieces of evidence onto eDofE – e.g. photos, certificates, self-assessment, worksheets, anything from your Period 6 Passport… You MUST give your assessors report to your Period 6 teacher next Monday ready to be completed and officially signed off If you have chosen to do another activity for this section (e.g. cricket coaching), and not use the school one for your DofE Award, then please get the lead adult to complete the Assessors Report in your passport. All of the above needs to be completed by Monday 23rd April

What is my assessors report? They are found in your Record Books, which were given out in Autumn Term. They look like this (see right) Before giving this to your teacher or lead adult, make sure you have completed all the details at the top – including participant name, activity, dates, and goal set Your date started was 25/09/17 Your date completed is 26/03/18

What next? Next term, Period 6 classes will change and you will be do the opposite section (Volunteering or Skill). You must complete all these outline details on eDofE by Monday 7th May.
