Don't Stop Believing stars Singer Station have said that they are hoping to achieve charity status.
The song-and-dance collective, who were voted through to the final on Sunday's launch show, were founded by teacher Louise McFarlane three years ago.
McFarlane organises the music school, which is open to all, but struggles financially to keep the business afloat.
Speaking about her school, she told DS: "Just now we do charge the kids when they can afford it, but there are overheads with the other teachers and the hall fees.
"We bought an old derelict building recently, which is totally rundown, but the kids are out and about now trying to raise funds to get that up and running.
"We've also sent off all the forms to try to register Singer Station as a charity. If we can get that then we will be able to open our doors to everyone. At the moment, we can't afford to do that."
What to Read Next
Explaining her inspiration for the group, she added: "It was always my dream to open my own school as a kid, so I finally got around to doing it three years ago. The only requirement is that everyone treats everyone else with respect and that the kids believe in themselves. Self-confidence is one of the main things we work on.
"I just opened it because a lot of things like this cost a lot of money these days and there are term fees or whatever. We work with kids who can't afford it and some kids who come in and say that their mum and dad can't pay the weekly sub. We let those kids through the door for nothing, because we believe singing shouldn't be a privileged hobby. It should be open to anyone."
