The Access Gap The evidence was stark: despite years of effort from
universities, schools, and government, students from state schools were
substantially less likely to be offered a place at a top university than those
from independent schools, even if they had identical grades. In short, at a
crucial time in their lives young people were disadvantaged by an ‘access gap’:
an underlying disparity in support that reduces the chances of state school
applicants reaching their full potential. Our work is: High-quality Our impact
is greatest when the quality of our work is highest. We bring strong expertise
in the areas where we work. We are passionate about what we do, and this
motivates us to strive for constant improvement. We believe high quality is
achieved through an open, honest and critical approach to our own work and that
of our partners. Collaborative Our mission is shared by a vast range of
individuals and organisations – through supporting each other we can reach more
individuals with higher quality interventions. Everyone we work with is a
partner. We work hard to understand our partners, recognise their expertise and
speak a common language. We are approachable and empowering in the support we
provide.
