Summary
ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year
Last year, Aqoon
School-Home
Support
Services has continued
to
work with a number
of local primary,
secondary
and special schools.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic,
the level of engagement
was as hw
as previous year. Although
number of lockdowns
were
in put in place
by the government
to restrict
human
contact, we have successfully
managed
to continue
activities through
online.
More than 25 children
and their families
have accessed support
last
year
from
the
charity.
Aqoon
has
worked
with
a
number
of
organisations
including
schools,
local
voluntary
and
community
organisations
as well as parents
and carers.
Notably,
we have worked
with over 16young people who were at risk
of educational
underachievement.
Aqoon
has
provided
mentoring,
coaching
and academic tailored
intervention
which have helped
them
to overcome some ofthe barriers and difficulties
they had
in engaging
learning.
Through
the
Inclusion
Support
Partnership
Project which
was also
funded
by
Reaching
Communities
Fund,
Aqoon
has
worked
with
number
of schools
including
Babington
Academy,
Moat Community
College,
City of Leicester College, Soar Valley
College,
Crownhills
Colhge, and Madani
High School.
The project was designed
to support
chiklren
and young
people who
have
difficulties
in
engaging
with
school
expectation
and
risk of
underachievement
or
school
exclusion.
A
specialist
therapeutic
interventions
programmes
were delivered
to support
disadvantaged
young people who have dfificulties
in engaging
school expectations.
Partner
schools
have
welcomed
the
project
and
have
continually
worked
with us. Each school accessed weekly
bilingual
mentor
who
supports
their
students
at school
and
also
provides
home-school
liaison
support.
Schools
have
also referred
number
of students
to
access Aqoon based Study Support. The study support was delivered
Saturdays
and evenings
and total of 14 students
attended
since the
start
of the
programme,
but the
delivery
of the
programme
was
suspended
due to the Covid-19 Pandemic
and the programme
has
restarted
this academic year and is being delivered
online.
Students
who had no access to computers
received Iaptops to access
the online learning.
We are very pleased
the impact
Aqoon
has made
on children
and
young
people who attended
these provisions.
Also, the school-based
mentoring
and advocacy provided.
