For over a century our charity has gone through lots of changes. We are always working to make the biggest possible difference by evolving our ways of working meet the needs of the young people we work with and address the different challenges they face. Our new Strategic Plan sets out our ambition to significantly grow the number of disadvantaged young people who benefit from our services. It will see us broaden the age range and meet the needs of a wider pool of disadvantaged groups. Given our significant experience and expertise in social mobility and education we will use this to influence policy at the highest level and ensure all young people have equitable opportunities to succeed.
The young people we work with will develop curiosity, tenacity and creativity, helping them explore the best versions of themselves - now and in their futures.

 

You can read our strategic plan here, and below for a detailed look into how things will change in our delivery.

 

 

The change from "Scholars" to "Future Leaders" reflects our commitment to helping young people from all sorts of backgrounds, on all sorts of pathways, to fulfil their potential. This is about more than just your academic or career aspirations (though of course we'll support your choices in those): we'll help you to develop the curiosity, creativity and tenacity you need to win at life, personally, socially and vocationally.
