In 2012 we reach our 10th Anniversary year. Over the last decade we have changed thousands of young people's lives. We have been part of a change in schools across the country, but we have not yet achieved long-term systemic change. Join us in 2012 as we look at what we need to do to close the gap in achievement, access and aspiration between Britain's poorest and wealthiest children. We believe that our vision is achievable, and we need your support to get there.

2012 marks the 10th Anniversary of our launch and the beginning of the journey for the 10th cohort of Teach First teachers in schools in challenging circumstances across the country.

In the last decade Teach First, together with many other organisations who strive for educational equality, has made progress towards achieving our vision that no child's educational success is limited by their socio-economic background. This year we are looking towards our next ten years to understand how we can increase the collective impact that we are making on closing the gap between children from low-income communities and their wealthier peers. To do this we are working with our community to understand what challenges exist now and in the future, what our community is already doing to address these challenges and what it will take to ensure that we are making measurable progress towards our vision.

We hope that all members of the community who believe in this vision share a sense of urgency to work with us this year, whether they have been involved with Teach First in the past or not, to ask what we can all do to ensure every child has the same chance in life to succeed.
