CfBT Education Trust

Providing education for public benefit worldwide

CfBT Education Trust is a leading independent provider of education and training services.  It is a not-for-profit organisation, founded in 1965, with an annual turnover in the current financial year of about £150 million and employs approximately 2000 people worldwide.

CfBT operates as a business and values commercial disciplines as a means of ensuring high levels of performance but its work is underpinned by an ethical dimension deriving from its corporate values as a leading educational charity.

CfBT is a registered charity, and surpluses made on operational activities are placed in trust to fund educational research and development work. Each year the CfBT Trustees distribute over £1 million in this way.

CfBT provides education services to governments and agencies both at home in the UK and across the world. Examples of current and recent project include:

  • The design and administration of the national programme of professional development for the Fast Track Programme;

  • The management of some of the Government's largest projects for adult basic skills ('Skills for Life') on behalf of the Adult Basic Skills Strategy Unit (ABSSU) and the Learning & Skills Council (LSC);

  • The provision of technical assistance for national level education reform in Rwanda and Bosnia; and

  • The lead advisor to the State of Qatar on the reform of their core national curriculum.
