The Gold Level Industrial Cadets Award is a program that links a team of 4-6 students with mentors in a local firm - last year Goffs Academy was paired with GlaxoSmithKline Plc. Students meet on a regular basis and design a project that meets the brief set by the company to meet a need. Whereas most meetings are virtual, there is potentially an opportunity to visit the mentors' site and plans, Covid permitting, for a residential either at Cambridge University or at UCL to construct prototypes for models. This is an ideal programme not just for those who are interested in engineering but also for those studying product design.

The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is a fantastic opportunity for our most ambitious students to give themselves an edge for university applications and job opportunities. It is offered to all students on Pathway 1 and Pathway 2 within Sixth Form.

At Goffs Academy students are able to complete their Bronze (Year 10) and Silver (Year 12) Duke of Edinburgh’s award. The D of E award is a fantastic opportunity for students to gain valuable transferable skills. It is an excellent chance for students to get involved with learning a new skill, volunteering, doing a physical activity as well as completing an expedition, where they are self-sufficient. The award is a fantastic way for students to develop confidence in a variety of skills and to build their resilience.
