The article discusses a pilot program in Hackney aimed at helping Year 6 students transition smoothly into secondary education through watersports and leadership training. Sponsored by a £15,000 grant from the London Freemasons, the initiative enhances students' teamwork, conflict resolution, and leadership skills. Results from a previous 12-month pilot indicate students remain engaged during their transition. The Future Ready initiative continues to offer support beyond school, providing safe spaces and mentorship, with the goal of empowering youth to reach their full potential in society.
Watersports and leadership are part of a programme to help youngsters avoid the risk of being expelled from school.
The course, which has been tested in Hackney classrooms, is designed to help children make a smooth transition into secondary education.
Young people are the lifeblood of our society...some lose their abilities by no fault of their own.
This helping hand' programme for Year 6 pupils in Hackney uses their talents to have a positive impact on society.
