The people we speak to are as concerned about #socialmobility as we are. This The Sutton Trust report shows the extent to which it is a significant concern to the British population. We believe top achieving students should go to top universities regardless of their circumstances!

Today is #SocialMobilityDay which is so close to our hearts at The Elephant Group. Our foundations are built on beliefs that top achieving students not only should be able to access top universities, but feel like they truly belong there ‘despite’ where they live or go to school.
