Our country, its economy and society need the best from all its citizens, but at present opportunity depends too much on social background.  While half of children from the richest fifth of families go to university, only 10% of those from the poorest fifth do.  Two thirds of judges, and over half of leading journalists, bankers and doctors went to private school.

The lost potential in some of the country’s struggling communities is not just bad for individuals – it is bad for social cohesion and a brake on prosperity too.  Education is the key to changing this.

At United Learning we take sound business principles, 100 years of experience of running successful independent schools and deep experience of tough schools – and we apply these to turning around some of the most challenging schools in the country.  Our website gives a flavour of our approach and the difference we make.

We are determined to continue growing as a group – helping to tackle unacceptably low education standards that entrench poverty in our most disadvantaged communities. We are determined to maintain our commitment both to academic rigour in the classroom and to a rich educational experience beyond it. Please consider supporting us in one of the following ways.

Since 2003 United Learning has been fortunate enough to receive substantial financial support from a handful of generous individuals.

In some cases this has involved sponsoring new academies – supporting the rapid transformation of leadership, behaviour and teaching and learning for pupils in a local school. In other case it has involved supporting a specific programme run centrally for all our pupils, whether in sport, music, the arts, leadership or enterprise.

If you would like to discuss ways to support United Learning schools or to help us to continue offering our pupils exceptional experiences please contact Victoria Russell-Robbins on

Governors play a vital role in enabling schools to flourish.

They set the strategic direction, oversee the budget and challenge and support the senior leadership as they strive to bring out the best in everyone, staff and students alike.

We are always keen to hear from prospective governors who are enthusiastic about making a difference to education in their local community.
