• What We Do
Since 1990, Prisoners Education Trust has been providing learning opportunities for offenders in custody to broaden their horizons and to focus on a more positive life on release, whenever that may come.
Our vision
Our vision is that every prisoner has the opportunity to benefit from education.
Our mission
- To offer prisoners access to, and support for, the widest range of education and training opportunities.
- To promote to policy makers and the public the importance of offender education.
• Projects
Whilst Prisoners’ Education Trust’s primary focus remains with providing funding for distance learning courses, over time the Trust has developed other projects which tackle key areas of interest – young offenders and offender learning policy, research and reform.
