| 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 | Spend £22,257 on a minibus for the school to use to transport pupils to enrichment activities throughout the school day. This enhanced the pupil experience by increasing the exposure they have to various life experiences which they may not have experienced otherwise. For example, the pupils were able to go on a residential trip learning independence and life skills and outdoor pursuits. Being able to leave the school on a regular basis has improved behaviour and absconding rates because pupils are engaged and are rewarded for positive behaviour. |
