xl clubs in London and the South East

Welcome to the web page for xl clubs in London and the South East. We hope you enjoy reading all about what’s happening in xl clubs across the region.

Prince’s Trust xl clubs provide a personal development programme aimed at young people aged 13-19 at risk of underachievement or exclusion from school. Activity areas include Personal, Team and Interpersonal Skills, Active Citizenship, Entrepreneurship and Enterprise, Preparation for Work and Enrichment Projects.

Through successful completion of units, club members can gain QCF Award and Certificate sized qualifications. These are awarded by Prince’s Trust Qualifications, who have been formally approved as an awarding organisation by Ofqual, the examinations regulator.

Support from The Prince’s Trust includes:

• all curriculum materials, resources, training and verification
• a dedicated Prince’s Trust staff member to help set up and take the club forward
• access to a network of xl clubs and regional events to share good practice and ideas
• opportunities to get involved with sports and corporate partners

This page is designed to keep you in touch with the latest news from across the region. Our calendar of events contains key dates for the diary, so do please check this out.
