Education

With you every step of the way
Concerns about the affordability of FE and HE raise big questions for institutions about the future. Funding cuts and uncertainty surrounding tuition fees are making it difficult for institutions to plan ahead. At the same time, intense competition in the sector against the backdrop of a demographic dip has led to falls in student numbers and we know that many of you are having to make brave and sometimes tough decisions as a result – whether that’s to rationalise and stabilise, or to pursue new opportunities through different ways of working.

As universities, FE colleges and independent providers, you can also shape your own global futures by collaborating internationally and building educational and cultural ties with other nations. This can only be achieved by forging strong, lasting and mutually-beneficial partnerships.

With the right advice and support, universities and others involved in HE and FE can strengthen their operating model, whilst continuing to bring important benefits to society and keeping learning at their heart, nationally and internationally. We’re with you every step of the way.
