S4 pupils took part in a pilot programme on Alcohol Awareness created by the British Institute of Innkeeping. The Scottish Certificate in Alcohol Awareness was developed to support government initiatives to raise awareness of alcohol issues among youths.
Most pupils were successful in passing the exam at the end of the six-week course and received the BIIAB Certificate in Alcohol Awareness at a presentation ceremony opened by Doon Valley councillor Drew Filson. Kilmarnock FC supported the event by sending two players, Cameron Bell and Lee Robinson to award the certificates.
Alice Cardwell-Hodges, International Development Director for the BIIAB said “I am delighted that pupils at Doon Academy have found the course so beneficial”. The programme has been well received by pupils, parents and teachers and will be rolled out to other secondary schools in East Ayrshire. Congratulations to everyone who took part in this worthwhile pilot.
