Around 150 teenagers in year 12 at the school on Great Northern Road - part of Derby Diocesan Academy Trust - organised the whole-school event.

Sixth formers were given entire responsibility for organising the event as part of their application process for the Archbishop's Young Leaders Award, a national character and leadership education programme for UK schools run by the Archbishop of York's Youth Trust.
