The SHINE Trust was founded in March 1999. Its mission is to support additional educational initiatives across the UK which encourage children and young people to raise their achievement levels. Merchant Taylors’ received a 3 year grant to run the ‘Serious Fun on Saturdays’ programme. The programme has been so successful that the Governing body of the School have decided to support the programme from next year onwards following the end of the funding period.
Sarah Ladbrook, the SHINE coordinator for Merchant Taylors’, said “we look forward to working with both the girls and staff from our local primary schools. This is the third year of the SHINE programme and we continue to be the only school in Merseyside to run the ‘Serious Fun on Saturdays’ scheme which aims to raise the aspirations of girls from local schools. We are delighted that the Governors have given their financial support for us to continue to run the programme for the next three years.
