Each and every half-term and holiday (except Christmas and New Year) our 1:1 Assisted Activities programme offer educational and therapeutic awards for children, young people and adults. We are able to be flexible with the ages of which we work in the school holidays too! We appreciate that in the school holidays, families or professionals may be looking for external programmes to engage individuals, and we can do this in a variety of ways which can include AQA Unit Awards: an offer a chance to learn, as part of a course, a number of different conservation related activities, bushcraft, adventure sport, animal and equine based subjects. The reward if they pass their course is an AQA certification which may help them to volunteer, or even help on their CV in the future!

The AQA unit awards scheme is awarded as a recognition of achievement rather than a qualification, although it is suitable for all ages and abilities and could provide fantastic exposure into something new which could inspire individuals for future pathways. AQA rewards the child or young person with a certificate if they pass and can be used later as proof of experience and knowledge in many subjects to a prospective employer in the future. ADO are an official Accredited AQA Training Academy, where our staff are qualified to run hundreds of specialised courses linked to our areas of expertise! If you are interested just get in touch with what the individual's interests are so the team can share their thoughts on suitable AQA courses. 
So instead of sending your child to a holiday camp this summer, why not send them to ADO where they can have a chance to achieve something worthwhile, whilst being able to decompress in a quiet space away from the pressures that people face on a day to day basis.

All our courses include a one-off AQA registration fee (£35.00). This is paid annually. Once paid this allows you to participate in as many AQA unit awards as you would like within the year. The prices also includes a small ADO administration for data entry and sending the associated paperwork back to AQA to arrange the certificates. We also make the courses extra fun by adding in our own activities within the course including campfire cooking and bushcraft activities for example.

We appreciate the financial strain that individuals are facing currently, and therefore we will accept clients to attend our setting in the holidays even if they are not a regular client of ours (subject to successful assessment of needs). We also pride ourselves on being a Multi Agency Working Company and with this in mind, we would be happy to work directly with networks surrounding a client (subject to payment terms).       

Please do get in touch with us for more information, we will do our best to accommodate your needs and budget, and tailor make AQAs that are achievable within the durations of what your budget allows.
