Many students travel abroad — but very few can academically demonstrate what they learned.

The diploma is designed to integrate smoothly alongside the student’s experience, offering a clear framework before, during, and after their time abroad.

Delivered in partnership with CGCS, the programme follows an academic structure that supports students throughout their journey. All coursework and reflective tasks are completed remotely, allowing students to study flexibly at times that suit them.

This diploma allows you to:

• Earn up to 16 UCAS points
• Strengthen university & apprenticeship applications
• Evidence leadership, teamwork & resilience
• Gain an internationally recognised Level 3 qualification

You don’t just attend camp — you graduate from it.

Global Citizenship (applicable for all Camps)

Explore the global challenges shaping our world today, including inequality, climate change, migration, human rights and sustainable development.

Students learn to understand the systems behind these issues — from economics and governance to education and environmental change — while reflecting on their own role as responsible global citizens.

• Ethical volunteering and responsible international engagement

• Youth activism and global leadership

• Migration, human rights and environmental justice

Perfect for: social sciences, education, politics, international relations.

Marine Conservation (applicable for Camp Zanzibar and Camp Jamaica)

Discover the world beneath the ocean’s surface while learning about the challenges facing marine ecosystems.

Students explore coral reefs, marine biodiversity and ocean conservation, while examining the impact of pollution, climate change and overfishing on our oceans.
