Murton Trust for Education and The Environment

Charity registered in Scotland SC031554

Murton Trust is a registered charity based 2 miles outside of Forfar, Angus. We are an SQA accredited vocational training centre for young people aged 14:19 who are unable to cope with mainstream academic education; are at risk of leaving school with little or no qualifications and that demonstrate some barrier to learning and those at risk of social and employment exclusion as a consequence of little or no school achievement. We also work in partnership with government organisations to provide a unique, innovative and essential service through work experience placements for young people in Angus who have left school.
