Chair of T￿￿teeS Comments:
J am proud to the chair of trustees at Shaped. We have had a challenging but succe&$￿] year, th¢ highli￿ts
from the year are reflected in this report.
Wh¢n r¢ading the numbers we could be tempted to think Iv¢ll that's not a lot of young people,. One thing w¢
are mindful of in Shaped is the netwoTl£ of relationships whieh sit behind every young person we work with.
Most of our youn8 peopl¢ Come to us from situations where key relationships have broken down and trust has
been brok¢n or losl with the adults in their lives. Whether that be with parentslcarers. teachers or other
professionals working with th¢ young p¢rson and their families. At Shaped our unique cu￿1culuM helps lo
rebuild the young person. Many come to Shaped feeling that they have no hope for the future and l¢av¢ us
with hope. In that sense the numbers don't tell the story. Th¢ in7p￿t5 inlo ihe future are far more thgn onty 18
young peopl¢ have a¢cessed our learning centres.
I love the tale of the starfish. The youn8 8irl believes in the potential of what she is doing and so do we. W¢
hope from reading this report tha¢ lik¢ ih¢ old man in the tale. you would wani to join in with us. Some
practical ways in which you can do this is by volunteering or becoming a regular donor. Please speak to one of

During this year the extraordinary dedication and passion of our stalyat Shaped has enablcd us to success￿11Y

All student places at Shawl are commissioned directjy by our patkner schools with a Servi¢e Level
Agreejnent put in place to ¢over the placement. and this year we worked with 5 different pArtner sCh￿IS from
the city. Over the year w¢ have ¢ontinu¢d to build positive workin8 ￿lAtionShIpS with each school, which has
enabled us to support the youn8 F*ople, and their families is the best way possilTrl¢.
Our approach to teachin8 and learning {our pedagogy) relies on a Dumber of fundamental core beliefs:
Every child's natural state AS one wbv¢ they learn and grow. Like a S￿ in the right environment
they will grow, but in a toxic/traumatic or wrong ¢nviroDment they will noL (TredS¢ed)

complex and illtertwined s¢ns¢ of self that hLS been shaped and influenced over many years by the
relationships and circumstances of key people in their lives.
Our priority a5 we invite young people into Shaped. is to create a sense of belonging and acceptance, inviting
them to be part of the Shaped community, where we all lesrn and grow together. Without prioritising this. our
students won't be ￿dY lo l¢arn. This sense of community is the foundalion of the learning enviTonment

As part of our offer this year we partnered with another small organisalion Cmpound Music to help deliv¢r an
Alternative Provlston offer fwused around music and lyric writing. Cmpnund Music is an or82nisation led by
brothers Conor and Stefan Merrison. they have developed through working in sch(K)Is. a programme based
around lyric writing and music production that enables young people to have discussions around key PSHE
topics such as rol¢ m(xlels, hO￿S and aspirntlOll5, relationships, social medi4 crime etc. At Shaped we wer¢
able to support this project with our safeguarding expertise and trainiug alongside our experience in running

of which successfully engaged in the work.
Mentorin ,
In Sept¢mber 2023 in response to observations from our team and our parlner schools. we l&un¢h¢d a
mentoring setvice focused on working l-to-l with students who had become dtsengaged from any fornlal
i•
education. Since the COVID-19 pandemic a growing number of young p¢opl¢ had found it ¢hallellging to
return to mAinstr¢am school, and had be¢ome 'stuck'. On¢¢ out of the system it was clearly more and Tnore
difficult to return as the gap ktw¢en th¢m and their peers grew wider and increasing levels of anxiety Could
been seen by many young people. It is also observed that young people not attending education are at an
increased risk of becoming involved in criminal or sexual ¢xploitation.
Over the academic year 202312024 yvar w¢ worked with 8 young people on the mentoring Se￿1¢e all of
whom had become disengaged from mainstream ¢duca¢ion and were not able to access school, or Ali¢rnalive
Pmvision. Our bespoke mentoring approach responds to the needs of each individual young pe￿on and is
focused on slowly building up a positive trustin8 relationship. From this place the mentor is able to introduce
the young p¢ople to new situations. new people and into new learning ¢nvironments. This helps build
confidence. resilience in the young person.
Of the 8 students we will ¢ontinu¢ to work with 4 of them into the next academic year building on the positive
¢ngagement made in this first year.

Shaped's key financial objective is to ensur¢ we maintain financial stability, continued solvency and robust
financial systems and governance pAKedures year on year. so that we ¢an sustsin d¢livery of our charitsbl¢
objectives both cutrently and into the fi]ture.
Shaped's turnover this year has inere85ed to £303,990 (2023: £275,184). The majority {75•/o) of this income
came through the deliv¢ry of the AP s¢rvices to schools and prices for the service wetE increase in September
2023 in res￿nse to the increascd running cost5 of Shaped (linked to inflationary pressures and stsff salary
iDcrea5es). Other significant income w4$ generdted from th¢ n¢w mentoring offer (£13.840_ 50/0 of income),
the adult learn¢r group at Spa View (£24.96Q- ￿/0 of income}.
Gainlng charity status in January 2024 enabled us to I￿k into applying for fimding to d¢velop some of our
new work outside of the AP offer. In June 2024 we w¢r¢ grant¢d £2.500 from the KFC Foundation to support
the new mentoring worK this was used tv fund staff salaries associated with this work. Alongsid¢ this fimding
we also receiv¢d a number of donations from individutls over the y¢ar. and gift aid was claimed on those
which are eligible. totslling a fiirther £15.973 (inc. gift aid). W¢ are very grateful to all those who hav¢
donated to the work of Shaped this year.
Expenditure in the year was £303.490 (2023.. £284,107), resulting in a surplus of £500 for the year (2023..
£8,923 deficit). This reflects- an increase in the costs ass(Kialed with supporting our charitable activities and in
particular increased salary costs. In the work we provlde, our staff are our greatest asset and th¢ heart of
everything we do. Due to this staff costs make up the greatest share of our expenditure. at £251.704 (2023.,
£239,268) this equates to 83 /• of total expenditure over the year.
Th¢ balance sheet shows a long term interest free loan taken out by Shaped in Au8USt 2021. trustees agr¢ed to

After rnaking appropriate enquiries, the trustees hav¢ a reasonable expectation thai the chariry has adequate
resources to Continue in operational ¢xislence for the foresee8bl¢ future. for this re&8oo they continue to
adopt th¢ going concern basis in preparing the finaneial slatements. Further d¢lails ￿gardIng the adoption of
