Abstract: 
The Social Mobility Foundation (SMF) is a charity that aims to make a practical improvement to social mobility in the UK by encouraging and supporting access to 'high-status' universities and professional occupations for high-attaining pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds. This evaluation compares the education outcomes of SMF participants (collected by SMF via participant questionnaires and online searches) with outcomes for a group of pupils with similar observable characteristics (such as performance at secondary school and neighbourhood context), observed in administrative data. This report focuses on the education outcomes for six cohorts of participants with the SMF: the cohorts that entered the programme between 2009 and 2014. Results for the cohorts entering in 2013 and 2014 (referred to as the 2013 cohort and 2014 cohort) are new. Results for earlier cohorts update findings contained in an earlier IFS report (Crawford, Greaves and Jin, 2015).
