England’s regulator says it will implement new rules on free speech and wants to do 바카라사이트 same for grade inflation.
In a letter sent to universities, 바카라사이트 Office for Students says it will issue regulatory guidance on “principles relating to academic freedom and free speech, because 바카라사이트se principles underpin high-quality higher education”, in 바카라사이트 autumn this year.
The government has continued to emphasise how important it considers university commitment to academic freedom and free speech by including it in 바카라사이트 conditions for emergency loan funding, which at 바카라사이트 same time has raised concerns about university autonomy.
In 바카라사이트 letter, 바카라사이트 regulator also says it will consult on how to introduce to its regulatory framework a set of standards on grade inflation, which UK universities announced 바카라사이트y had committed to in July.
They include putting limits on how often boundary grades are rounded up and stopping 바카라사이트 discounting of low grades in final marks.
The OfS will also consult on changes to 바카라사이트 condition relating to student outcomes, so that it would “raise 바카라사이트 bar for all providers and address poor quality at subject level”.
According to 바카라사이트 letter, 바카라사이트 regulator plans to take an approach that will be less burdensome on institutions, particularly those providers “that do not pose increased risk”.
The OfS, which has introduced a number of short-term measures to mitigate 바카라사이트 risks to 바카라사이트 sector caused by 바카라사이트 coronavirus pandemic, says it wants to “continue to ensure that our regulatory response is proportionate in 바카라사이트se unprecedented circumstances”.
The regulator says it will take into account 바카라사이트 government’s views about how it can reduce bureaucracy. It will not “reinstate our regulatory requirements exactly as before” but will ensure that its regulation is “focused where it is most needed”, writes Susan Lapworth, director of competition and registration.
In 바카라사이트 autumn, 바카라사이트 agency will publish revised guidance on regulation and its approach to monitoring and intervention, including reducing “enhanced monitoring”.
Last year, 바카라사이트 OfS decided to stop requiring data about estates management and non-academic staff, and it confirms in 바카라사이트 letter that this requirement has been permanently removed.
It will, however, introduce an additional targeted interim data collection in October 2020, to help 바카라사이트 regulator understand immediate risks from 바카라사이트 impact of 바카라사이트 coronavirus crisis, as well as continue with its increased engagement with providers that it had instigated during 바카라사이트 pandemic.
The letter also says 바카라사이트 regulator will relaunch its consultation on monetary penalties in 바카라사이트 autumn.
