Facts and figures

Explore our headline figures from our latest impact report, showing why IntoUniversity is needed to support young people facing barriers to education.

Our impact is supported by strong evidence. Independent evaluation shows that students who regularly attend our Academic Support programme achieve higher exam grades. Data on our students’ post-school destinations demonstrates that they are more likely to progress to Higher Education and other positive pathways.

Alongside this external research, we collect detailed feedback at the end of every programme. Each year, tens of thousands of student evaluation forms are analysed, with additional insight from parents, carers, and teachers. This helps us understand how effectively our programmes support young people, and whether the changes students report are reflected by those around them.
