At Bangladesh International Tutorial, students learn far more than classroom lessons. One of the most powerful experiences we offer is the The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award, one of the world’s most respected youth development programmes.
The Award challenges students to grow through service, skill building, physical activity, and adventure. It helps young people build confidence, leadership, and resilience — qualities that universities and future employers value.
At BIT, participation in the programme is strongly encouraged. Many students take part and achieve outstanding results.
BIT has built a remarkable reputation in the Duke of Edinburgh programme.
BIT has produced dozens of Gold Award winners, a major achievement for any school. The Gold Award ceremonies are often hosted by the British High Commissioner, highlighting the global prestige of the programme.
This success reflects the dedication of our students, teachers, and mentors who guide them through the challenging but rewarding journey.
Community Service
Students volunteer with social and charitable organisations. They learn empathy, responsibility, and the value of helping others.
Skills Development
Participants develop new abilities such as communication, leadership, creative arts, or practical life skills.
Physical Recreation
Students improve their physical fitness through sports and outdoor activities.
Adventurous Journey
One of the most exciting parts of the programme. Students work as a team to plan and complete an outdoor expedition. They learn teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience.
“As someone who has completed all the levels of the Duke of Edinburgh award through BIT, I can say that it is more than just a youth development program. It has taught me resilience, self dependency and teamwork. After being pushed out of my comfort zone, I have learnt several new survival skills and the ability to adapt.”
