The Coriell - What is that?

Coriell Award

Coriell is a local pre-Roman word that tribes from our area used to describe their collaboration in tackling challenges. This is exactly what the Coriell does.

Coriell supports Derbyshire secondary and special schools to deliver their alcohol and drug education programme. It provides schools with training, resources and consultancy to enable them to deliver evidence based teaching and learning. Through partnership working with services from across Derbyshire the Coriell helps schools prepare young people for adulthood.

It gives young people, parents, staff and professionals a voice to ensure that alcohol and drug education is the best quality it can possibly be.
