EXCELLENCE IN HIGHER EDUCATION 159

For the Middle East, where education, humanitarian support and youth opportunity are closely connected, the G12++ represents a powerful new model. It recognises that displaced young people do not need lowered expectations. They need credible pathways, trusted assessment and partners willing to open doors.

By creating a credible route to higher education and employment, Derham says the qualification can support young people who are currently excluded despite their drive and talent. “Through this qualification, we can provide a pathway to higher education and employment for many who are currently excluded, unlocking the incredible potential of so many to benefit the world.” “Of all the projects that I have been involved with, this is the one that has the potential to make the greatest difference” Patrick Derham, G12++ Advisor and Former Headmaster of Westminster School The first G12++ graduates will enter University, TVET and employment in 2026
