The Rising Futures programme has been a really positive opportunity for our students. Students have made noticeable improvements in their confidence and self-esteem, and this has also impacted their performance in the classroom."

Why do your students need self-belief?  

The Rising Futures programme has a proven impact on students, empowering them to unlock their personal potential.

Each student on our programme faces different challenges, but with the right support can believe in themselves, and create their own positive future. 

Before the programme

We typically work with a selected group of students who begin the programme displaying some of the following behaviour: 

• Withdrawn in group situations 
   

• Hesitant to engage in class 
   

• Underachieving academically 
   

• Lacking motivation 
   

• Unlikely to ask for help when it's needed
   

• Likely to give up easily 

After the programme

We collect data from students, teachers, parents and the Yes Futures Coaches to paint a complete picture of students' progression. Schools receive a full Impact Report detailing individual student progression. 

The programme has improved students’ confidence which has made a difference to their learning, but also their ability to speak up and come forwards with important issues.”

Students gain a clearer understanding of working life and think about their future by visiting an inspiring workplace.
