## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main** Our pilot project was launched in October 2024 with a focus on supporting **achievements of the charity** young people who were disengaged from education, experiencing low self- **during the year** confidence, and demonstrating poor school attendance. Through participation in a structured programme of singing and performance opportunities, students quickly became more engaged and motivated. The project fostered a strong sense of achievement, encouraging personal growth, teamwork, and increased self-confidence among participants. The choir took part in a range of school performances and was subsequently invited to perform at the Barbican Centre, where the students performed exceptionally before an audience of approximately 800 people. In addition, the group performed at a national educational conference, where they received a standing ovation from an audience of educators and professionals in recognition of both their musical achievement and personal development. The choir also collaborated with a leading Christian charity at St Paul's Cathedral, performing alongside a nationally recognised Christian recording artist known for his appearance on the television programme The Voice UK. Feedback from teachers, parents, and the students themselves highlighted significant positive outcomes arising from the project. These included increased confidence, improved behaviour, stronger school engagement, and enhanced attendance and participation within the wider school community.
