Empowering Futures: The Edsidera Approach to School Awards

Empowering Futures: The Edsidera Approach to School Awards

At Edsidera, we champion the belief that no two schools are identical, so why should their awards be? Our core vision is rooted in supporting schools by offering a versatile array of additional layers to their extracurricular programs. Comprising a team of global educators, we understand the diverse nature of educational institutions, recognizing that uniqueness can stem from factors such as location, curriculum, student cohorts, and establishment history.

The Rising Star Award: Customised for Your School’s Journey

Our signature initiative, the Rising Star Award, embodies our commitment to acknowledging and enhancing the distinctiveness of each school. We’ve meticulously designed this award to accommodate the specific needs and aspirations of any school, ensuring it aligns seamlessly with your unique educational journey.

Tailored Challenges for Holistic Development

The Rising Star Award integrates a variety of core challenges spanning life skills, entrepreneurship, sustainability, global citizenship, and well-being. What sets us apart is our flexibility – schools can further customise the award by incorporating specific challenges or tasks linked to their individual school improvement plans, curriculums or national agendas.

Flexibility Beyond Borders: BSO Britishness Challenges and More

International schools utilising the national curriculum, for instance, can effortlessly incorporate ‘BSO Britishness’ challenges, aligning their extracurricular offerings with global standard. This flexibility ensures that schools receive precisely what they need, promoting a personalised and relevant approach rather than adhering to a generic, one-size-fits-all model.

Age-Appropriate Tasks Crafted by Experienced Educators

Recognising the importance of age-appropriate activities, each task within the Rising Star Award is carefully curated by experienced educators. This ensures that the challenges are not only engaging but also cater to the developmental needs of students at various stages. This is also true of the personalised tasks self-selected by any school. The Edsidera team will craft challenges and differentiate them for each age group. This month we have created SIP tasks linked to reading, character attributes, expanding friendship circles, faith school curriculum challenges and understanding local culture to name a few.

Empowering Through Digital Innovation

Edsidera goes beyond traditional approaches by introducing a user-friendly app and platform. Now, children can leverage familiar technology to upload evidence and create self-reflections seamlessly. This digital integration adds a contemporary and engaging layer to the learning experience, making the process more accessible and enjoyable for students. No need to wait for a printer to get a photo, instead children are able to upload photos, video and pdfs along with typing out their self-reflections.

Passionate About Providing What Schools Need

Our passion lies in empowering schools with tailored solutions that evolve from year to year, reflecting the dynamic nature of education. Rather than offering a standardised award, we believe in delivering a bespoke experience that caters to the ever-changing requirements of schools.

In essence, Edsidera is not just offering an award; we’re providing a platform that adapts, grows, and enriches the educational journey of every child and school.  We are empowering futures, one child at a time.
