Yes You Can
Yes You Can is a 20-week programme for year 9 pupils, which takes them on a journey to get to know themselves, build confidence, improve literacy and numeracy, and explore topics such as:
· Barriers to Learning

​
Yes You Can is focussed on pupils who are under attaining or at risk of under-performing.
Our weekly 1-hour workshops offer a blended learning approach of online and face to face sessions when appropriate. The programme seeks to tackle problems that can hinder education for young people such as low self-esteem, confidence,
and self-worth.
It supports learning through achieving its three core objectives:
1. Improving emotional wellbeing
2. Improving confidence in aspirations and future educational career choices
3. Improving participation in civic/social action
​
Sessions can be on & off site sessions and can cater to more than on group of students.
The program culminates with a graduation ceremony. We are proud of the success of this programme and the positive feedback from schools, parents, and students.

Find your Voice
Find Your Voice is a student-led action group which aims to challenge, develop and empower themselves and their peers, particularly those of Black heritage. The programme is facilitated by Kainé tutors but developed and led by participants.
Explores issues around attainment and cultural heritage through workshops, activities, virtual visits and an online conference.
​
Find Your Voice addresses social issues affecting participants and encourages cultural awareness throughout the school or college, promoting retention and increased positive progressions for BAME students.
Previous groups have developed programmes including celebrations of Black History Month, International Women’s Day and Martin Luther King Day, a trip to Liverpool to learn about the Atlantic slave trade and meet students at Liverpool John Moores University, hosting an arts showcase and charity fundraising activities.

Students benefit from increased engagement with school or college activities, self-development through organising activities for the group, richer knowledge of Black Culture and enhanced employment opportunities.
