Celebrating Success in Schools

Raising Self-Belief Through Recognising & Rewarding Achievements

About the Awards

DVS Awards by DVS Foundation, were established in 2021 to support teachers in recognising and rewarding Year 12 students for their success over the school year. The Awards aim to recognise students making significant contribution to their schools and communities. We believe the programme is particularly advantageous for Year 12 students, as it marks a pivotal transition into adulthood.

The Awards celebrate students who embody the values represented in our award categories:
Kindness • Resilience • Ambition • Leadership • Community Impact • Integrity & Respect • Environmental Stewardship • Teamwork & Collaboration • Innovative Thinking • Personal Growth

The Awards are presented at our prestigious Awards Ceremony at the end of the academic year with each winner being gifted a certificate of achievement and a £100 gift voucher.

If you are a school, head over to the How It Works page to find out about the process involved.
