CAS - The Final Report 2016

At the end of your CAS programme, you write a longer, more sustained reflection about the
whole experience over the two years. It is important that you address or refer to the Learning
Outcomes and focus on your growth and personal development. You do not need to include
every activity you undertook.
Below is a scaffold that you might like to use to organise your thoughts; it is just a guide and
you are free to add your own flair.
Examples of past reports are available and some are in your CAS booklet.
