What Awards Aware organisations are saying:
“I / we support Awards Aware because...at the YMCA we recognise that people learn in different ways and that Awards are an important part of the learning and accreditation map for young people. We offer a range of awards through local YMCAs that recognise young people's learning, volunteering and community engagement. ”
YMCA Scotland
“We support Awards Aware because... we are a school focused on learner journeys and wider achievement. We offer as many alternative routes to qualifications and chances to enhance our learners experience as possible from things like Duke of Edinburgh to other similar awards. We are also an SCQF ambassador school and work with the SQA and other agencies to offer qualifications at level 5 and 6 for pupils outwith their subject choices. ”
