Villiers Park Educational Trust helps able young people to reach their full academic potential and develop a passion for learning. We are committed to fair access - enabling students from less advantaged backgrounds to gain places at leading universities.

Since 1968, nearly 23,000 students have benefited from our residential courses, with many more benefiting from our one day courses and Scholars Programme.

If you are a former Villiers Park student, please tell us your story.

"As Britain's Poet Laureate, I encourage people to follow their dreams. It is possible to make a living doing what you are most passionate about, and Villiers Park Educational Trust draws that out of young people.  We want them to understand that if you dedicate yourself and work hard, you'll see results.  But of course life is easier if you're born into the right family.  Many students who come to Villiers Park are from disadvantaged backgrounds and need some help to achieve the results they are capable of.  If you have the means to help, I urge you to do so"
