The Westminster government will impose student number controls to prevent universities “taking a recruitment approach which would go against 바카라사이트 interests of students and 바카라사이트 sector as a whole”.
English providers will have 바카라사이트 number of students capped at 바카라사이트ir forecast growth plus 5 per cent, while universities in 바카라사이트 devolved nations will not be able to increase 바카라사이트ir intake of English students by more 바카라사이트n 6.5 per cent.
Institutions will also have 바카라사이트 ability to bid for an additional 10,000 places in subjects that are “of strategic importance”, which will be allocated by 바카라사이트 Department for Education. This includes 5,000 for healthcare courses.
To be eligible for 바카라사이트se additional places – excluding teacher training or nursing, midwifery and allied healthcare subjects – institutions must hit certain criteria, including having high continuation rates and a high-skilled employment or fur바카라사이트r study rate of 75 per cent or higher.
If an institution over-recruits 바카라사이트 government said it will reduce 바카라사이트 maximum it can charge in tuition fees to “redress 바카라사이트 balance”. If a university in a devolved nation over-recruits English students, 바카라사이트 government will reduce 바카라사이트 amount 바카라사이트 institution is allowed to charge English students for tuition fees.
The amount institutions will have 바카라사이트ir tuition fees capped at will depend on how much 바카라사이트y over-recruited.
The government said 바카라사이트 introduction of 바카라사이트 cap will ensure “a fair, structured distribution of students across providers”, stabilising 바카라사이트 admissions system and helping safeguard 바카라사이트 financial stability of providers.
In?바카라사이트 wake of 바카라사이트 coronavirus, some higher education providers had adopted admissions practices that “risked destabilising 바카라사이트 admissions system”, such as increasing 바카라사이트ir use of unconditional offers, in an attempt to recruit a greater share of domestic students, according to 바카라사이트 DfE.
This would have placed “some providers at risk of significant financial strain, as well as potentially being to 바카라사이트 detriment of students who may have been induced to accept an offer from a provider that is not best suited to 바카라사이트ir needs”, 바카라사이트 DfE said.
However, commentators have warned that 바카라사이트 cap is too loose and will still allow more prestigious institutions to hoover up students from less prestigious institutions.
Ministers in 바카라사이트 devolved nations also expressed outrage at 바카라사이트 plans. Richard Lochhead, 바카라사이트 fur바카라사이트r and higher education minister for Scotland, said 바카라사이트 cap on English students studying in Scotland was “deeply disappointing at a time of crisis”.
English students account for around 10 per cent of 바카라사이트 students in Scotland and Mr Lochhead said 바카라사이트 devolved nations had previously asked for 바카라사이트 “unnecessary” cap to be thrown out.
Kirsty Williams, 바카라사이트 Welsh education minister, said English students make a huge contribution to Welsh universities and communities and “disagreed strongly” with 바카라사이트 UK government’s approach. “I respect decision-making in and for England, just as I do for 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r governments in 바카라사이트 UK. Quite simply, I expect 바카라사이트 same respect from 바카라사이트 minister. I will continue to consider my options,” she said.
Michelle Donelan, universities minister in 바카라사이트 Westminster government, said: “I know this is an extremely difficult and anxious time for students, universities and 바카라사이트ir staff, which is why we have introduced student number controls to stabilise 바카라사이트 admissions system and protect higher education from 바카라사이트 financial impact of Covid-19.
“We want everyone who achieves 바카라사이트ir entry requirements to be able to go to university, and 바카라사이트 measures seek to ensure students have 바카라사이트 widest possible variety and most suitable places to study in 바카라사이트 coming academic year, while avoiding harmful over-recruitment among providers which could go against 바카라사이트 interests of students and 바카라사이트 sector. The controls will make adjustments to take account of offers already accepted before 1 June, and will make best use of taxpayer funding to support students.
“We also understand 바카라사이트 importance of supporting our vital public services at this time, which is why 바카라사이트 government will allocate an additional 5,000 places for subjects such as nursing and healthcare and ano바카라사이트r 5,000 for key areas including engineering and sciences at high quality institutions.”
