20 youn people, 15 male and 5 female, have recieved their Entry 3 ASDAN PSD (Personal and Social Development) certificates. Working in the Learning Centre - or the Shed, as it is known - young people have been working towards a qualification designed to help the student in "becoming confident individuals who are physically, emotionally and socially healthy, being responsible citizens who make a positive contribution to society and embrace change and managing risk together with their own wellbeing.

The Year 11 'Sheddies' will be using the qualificationas a stepping stone to go on to college and the younger students will be progressing to PSD Level 1.
