We work with 2,000 young people each year through a range of programmes that share one mission: to empower young people to succeed.
Our Scholars are closing the gap

Outstanding exam performance


Typically, a high ability student from a less advantaged background is more than twice as likely to underachieve in their GCSEs as their non-disadvantaged peers of equal ability.
Invariably, this will impact on A-level results, too.
Our Scholars have comfortably outperformed in their GCSEs and A-levels compared to the national average.
Progression to higher education
Only 23% of all state school students compared to 65% of all independently schooled students progress to the most selective universities.
In contrast, the numbers of our Scholars and students attending university far exceed the national average.
'Inspiring Excellence doesn't even come close to describing it.'
Kaila Thompson from Belfast caught a plane and a train to attend her Exploration of Shakespeare Inspiring Excellence course, an experience she said was 'beyond worthwhile'.
