Inspiring the education system to give all young people across the UK the knowledge, skills and behaviours they need to flourish in their future life and work.
The Edge Foundation believes all young people should have the opportunity to achieve their potential by Making Education Relevant
We believe in high quality professional education and training, a broad and balanced curriculum, interactive and engaging real world learning and rich relationships between education and employers.
Making education relevant for...
- all – promoting greater equity in our society
- the real world – making sure that learning is engaging and exciting
- employability – ensuring that all young people are ready for work
- communities – tailoring solutions to the different nations, regions and place around the UK
- the future – preparing young people for our changing world and economy
Accelerating change in the education system
A relevant and engaging education empowers young people to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviour they need for success as adults, workers, citizens and leaders.
We gather evidence-based research and evaluate projects and trials on the ground. As well as lead debates in specialist forums to inspire educational delivery and influence future policies.
