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.
