About our Young Questors programme

The Potential Trust’s Young Questors Programme works with children and young people aged 4-25 who are from low-income backgrounds and have High Learning Potential and Dual and Multiple Exceptionalities.

We believe that many children who are bright want to learn but can sometimes struggle in a formal school environment, can become disillusioned, disengaged and turn off learning.

Our Young Questors Programme seeks to get children and young people excited about their learning journey at home and beyond the school gates.

In April 2026 we launched the first step in our new learning pathway — Spark.

More programmes will be rolling out progressively over the coming years.
