You do not need to get your paper assessors page, from your participants pack signed by your assessor. This can be done via email:

• Upload your activity logs to your eDofE page and any other evidence that you have.
• Email your assessor with the evidence and the activity logs. Please note, the assessor does not have access to your eDofE area.  Also, email them the following information filling in the relevant information to identify what they are assessing
• Website Link to send to assessors with the details below:
  https://www.dofe.org/assessor/
  Participants ID Number:  XXXXXXXX
  Level:  Bronze
  Section:  Voluntary, Physical or Skill
• The assessor will complete the report online and this will come straight to me.  I will check that I can see your activity log and assessors report and sign off the section.  Do this for each of the three sections to complete your Certificate of Achievement

Please do not worry.  It is never too late to start an activity and it may be the focus that helps you through lockdown to find a new interest:

• Check out the DofE complete activities list to see if there is something that you like the look of.  Don't forget if it is a new skill, use "You Tube" to find out more, or ask and I can try and point you in the right direction.
• Check out the variations that DofE have set so that it is easier for you to complete the award whilst in your own home.  We know how difficult it is for you:

  - https://www.dofe.org/thelatest/volunteer-social-distancing/  - https://www.dofe.org/thelatest/volunteer-for-family/
• Do one section at a time - remember your parents can sign your activity log, but cannot be your assessor - Tutors, teachers and neighbours will be happy to do so.

If you have changed your assessor/activity, as long as you are keeping a good record on your activity log and the activity fits in the same category (email me to check if necessary), you can ask your Tutor, or teacher to be your assessor.  Please remember that the assessors report must match that of the assessor on your planner, so you may need to ask me to unapprove your planner so that you can change it and ask me to approve it again.

It is important for us to recognise how well you have done and give you the certificate in your hand, which you deserve.  As long as the award says you have completed your three sections, if you haven't received your Certificate of Achievement, please email me so that I can print it out for you:  j.wood@warriner.oxon.sch.uk

As you have completed the expedition in October.  If you do your three sections, you will at least now be awarded with the full Bronze DofE award.

I apologise for a lot of information, but the students are all at different levels, so I am trying to focus on the main problems that students and parents are emailing me with. It is absolutely no problem to email me:  DofEManager@warriner.oxon.sch.uk - if I am honest, email me if you have a problem, we can sort it out quite quickly this way.
I would like to think that DofE may give the students some focus during lockdown, which will give them something different to do other than school work and to use the time at the weekends.  I am sure that the voluntary activities make a massive impact to the community, friends and elderly and no doubt the students have brightened their day and helped them through this difficult time.  Perhaps consider continuing with the DofE activities, even if you have them signed off with DofE?
Don't forget that there is loads of information on your eDofE too under resources and also check out the expedition section in preparation for when we can get outside again.
