The Company Section

The Company Section is tailored for young people aged 11 to 15 School years 7 – 9. The Company section steps the learning curve up a notch by allowing them to take advantage of their new skills, physical development and strengthened sense of character. Young people who are part of this section, begin to gradually push the threshold of self-imposed limits. The programme is designed in such a way that they are eased into the mindset of “going forward” in life. .

Uniform

The uniform for the Company Section is Royal Blue Polo shirt accompanied by black trousers and black shoes.

Members of the Company Section will start out with an armband worn on the right arm to wear any badges they achieve. A second armband worn on the left arm may also be required dependant on progress and achievements throughout their time with the Company Section.

Meetings

We meet during term time on a Monday between 7.15 pm and 9.00 pm

Recognising Achievement

The Company section Badge work is about continuing to learn new skills, making their own decisions and having fun doing it all. The Company badge work programme is in the same six key areas of

• Get Active

By completing a number of activities in each of the areas above the Company Section young people will gain their badges of Membership, Bronze, Silver and Gold. We also recognise a member’s loyalty to the company by awarding a service badge for their years within the company.

To Challenge the young people more in the Company Section they are encouraged to earn projected badges for each of the areas as well.

Company Section young people can also gain nights away awards and gain the Discovery Badge which is classed as a major award for this age group.
