What is a CAS Project?
CAS requires students to take part in a range of experiences and at least one project. These should involve:
Real, purposeful activities, with significant outcomes
Personal challenge
Thoughtful consideration, such as planning, reviewing progress, reporting
Reflection on outcomes and personal learning
We don't prescribe specific projects or activities to students. All students should be involved in activities they've initiated themselves.Â
Example of a creativity project
For a creativity project, a talented musician could learn a particularly difficult piece, or a different style of playing.
Example of an activity project
Activity projects do not have to be sports-related or competitive. A valuable activity project could help a student overcome a personal fear, such as rock climbing.
Example of a service project
Service projects must be beneficial for the community as well as providing a learning opportunity for the student.
The CAS Project can address any single strand of CAS, or combine two or all three strands of creativity, activity and service.
Each Student must complete at LEAST one CAS Project. This form must be downloaded, completed and uploaded to student's CAS PORTFOLIO FOLDER
