Our Mission

The David and Jayne Paterson Educational Trust was established in the belief that education is the most efficient method of improving the welfare of all countries and all families. The basis of all human improvement begins with education.  The Trust, which is established for the promotion of education, contributes to this belief by providing scholarships to study at UK Universities or other educational institutions.  In particular, the Trust provides financial assistance to students from the People’s Republic of China who wish to study law overseas and who intend to return to the PRC to teach or practise Law. Currently the Trust provides students with scholarships to study for one of the following courses at the University of Oxford:  MJur, BA in Jurisprudence, MSc Law and Finance, MPhil in Law or DPhil in Law.
​
Objectives of the Trust

David and Jayne Paterson established the Trust whose objectives are:
  • the promotion of education
  • the promotion of the study of law
  • the awarding of scholarships and bursaries at any UK educational institution approved by the Trustees to residents in the People’s Republic of China to enable them to study law
Within the scope of the Objectives, David and Jayne hope
  • to help and encourage others to establish their own Educational Trusts
  • to encourage and promote the political and financial independence of the highest quality UK Universities
  • to promote the importance of education as being the most beneficial form of aid to third world countries.
David and Jayne recognise that their own financial resources are limited. However, they wish to do whatever is feasible to help others also contribute to the financing of education particularly for those students who do not have access to adequate funds.
