    Situation

    Talent is spread evenly across the country, opportunity is not” DfE 2017 Through early intervention we keep children mentally and physically active, raise aspirations, and develop their skills. We recognise the transformative effect of rich and varied experiences in childhood, and how powerful it can be for a child who is struggling to have someone outside their immediate circle pay attention. This can set them on a new path with confidence and a stronger sense of self.

    Solution

    The schools and programmes we support must have high Pupil Premium and Free School Meal attendees. The Foundation: • Monitors the involvement of Pupil Premium and FSM students • Develops the creative, and thinking skills of students, teachers, and parents/carers • Raises aspirations by enabling access to local clubs and organisations • Builds on employability skills • Delivers volunteer, leadership and coaching opportunities • Leverages support
