The Sutton Trust funds projects that provide educational opportunities for young people from non-privileged backgrounds. They will consider every project on an individual basis, but they are particularly interested in innovative projects and pilot schemes that have the potential to benefit large numbers, and in new research.
The Sutton Trust will fund projects across the UK, in any area where there is need, including rural and inner city areas. The only exception is for specialist schools which are generally only funded in the London area.
The Sutton Trust tends to fund projects in a formal education setting, working primarily with organisations such as schools, universities, community groups, charities and research bodies.
They do not fund individuals.
Deadline
There is no deadline for applications, as the Trustees meet at regular intervals throughout the year. The application process may take at least a month, and sometimes longer.
