Jack Petchey Award
Dunraven is one of 2000 groups and schools across London who run the Jack Petchey Award scheme. The awards give schools an opportunity to reward and recognise students for their effort and commitment to learning and the community. Dunraven presents the award to 9 students a year, which breaks down to 3 every term. When a student is chosen from nominations given, they receive £200 for the school, which is spent on anything of their choice within the school in order to benefit a particular department or activity, for example: additional resources in the Art department.
The student will receive a certificate, badge and entry into a £50 cash draw. They and their family will also be invited to a formal awards ceremony, where they will meet the Scheme founder (Jack Petchey) along with other students who have been recognised for their achievements.
When making your nominations, remember that the awards are not aimed at students 
who consistently achieve excellent results: they recognise the students who do their best on a day to day basis, perhaps those who are always:
