At Trio World School, we believe education extends far beyond the classroom—it is about shaping character, nurturing purpose, and preparing students to thrive in a dynamic global landscape.
In line with this vision, we are proud to introduce the International Award for Young People (IAYP), globally known as the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award.
The International Award for Young People (IAYP) is a globally recognized, non-competitive youth development programme that empowers young people through expeditions and trips and outings, aged 14–25 to discover their potential and contribute through impactful community outreach.
Founded in 1956 in the United Kingdom, the Award today operates in over 130 countries and has engaged millions of young people worldwide. In India, it has been active since 1962, supporting students in becoming confident, responsible, and resilient individuals.
