Achievements and Performance

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | This is the first full year achieved of teaching post Covid-Pandemic. After 2 terms, of a reduced teaching team operating with just 3 members, a 4th teacher was recruited and began work in April 2023. Castle School classes have continued during the year with consistent student membership, which has allowed the teachers to evaluate more clearly the benefits to the students. The first ever ‘showing’ of work took place with other students from the school as the audience. This was very well received and is programmed to be repeated at the end of the next school year. An immediate impact of the programme this year culminating in the showing of work was that most of the ‘audience’ joined in by the end of the performance, with two people only remaining seated, such was the excitement. Further to this, Radiates teachers were stopped by staff to ask if they knew which classes would participate the following year, because the teachers wanted ‘to get my kids into this programme’. Castle School have requested that the programme be offered to their KS3 and KS4 and 6th form students next year, with KS2 students not attending, and have requested additional mentorship |
| and training for one of their staff ~~delivering~~ ~~s~~o they can increase ~~other~~ movement classes ~~into~~ ~~a~~cross the curriculum. They have asked that the additional classes be supported offsite in dance studios as they don’t have enough space in school but are completely committed to expanding the curriculum. The school has offered to pay for this time. An evaluation and reporting structure was designed and implemented by the staff for the students. This has resulted in a full report for each child engaging with each set of class themes and activities throughout the year. The child reports will be shared with the school for onward transmission to the students themselves. As a team we now want to take this data and analyse the programme modules so as to articulate the benefits with data and stories. Teachers have captured ‘stories’ each week from classes to share for fundraising and reports. We have really focused on broadening awareness of the work to communities we interact as well as part of fundraising. For example, the CEO of the Royal Academy of Dance came to attend classes at Castle School in November 2022 to see the work and we are exploring possible collaborations. |

Achievements against Para 1.41 objectives set
