You can still apply to Teesside University and start this September 🎓 Jack had no idea what he would get in his A-Levels and was undecided about what he wanted to do. He achieved better grades than expected, giving him the push he needed to apply to Teesside University. Learn more about Clearing at tees.ac.uk/clearing 👈

A wonderfully tongue in cheek response by Wonkhe to Jo Johnson’s “words of wisdom” in the Financial Times. Where he does have a point is that the “government must #inflation-proof fees, ideally by linking increased funding to outcomes & aligning interests of #universities, taxpayers & #students.” This should include #Internationalstudent outcomes, data on Non-EU #graduateoutcomes which is immediately available to the sector form Asia Careers Group SDN BHD should be utilised to ensure the electorate understand the vast majority of #internationalstudents go on to successful #careers back home! This is of huge benefit to the UK driving direct inward investment & building #softpower. Not only that it is of huge benefit to the world reducing #braindrain & going some way to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The data exists for £350,000 to make this an immediate reality, will the sector “seize the nettle” before it’s too late? MAC reports in the Autumn, so if the sector are able to commission Non EU #graduateoutcomes data in the Spring, they have a chance of submitting their findings in the summer, before MAC reports to government. This being the case post-study work could receive a stay of execution? “According to Johnson’s short FT piece, political support for international students peaked five years ago. You’ll recall that 2019 was one endless stream of celebration – with the government’s #internationaleducation Strategy representing the first time a recruitment target had been set, and an expansion (live from 2020-21, following The Conservative Party’s decision to scrap the previous route in 2012) to the availability of straightforward post-study work visas for international students. But that’s all changing. International students, it seems, are only now becoming caught up in a “toxic debate” about immigration – charged with lowering academic standards and taking places that should, by divine right, be reserved for the stout and noble sons and daughters of Albion. Lord Johnson of Marylebone, a peer who takes the government whip, is concerned that this government will over-correct – restricting numbers and diminishing attractiveness (especially among #internationalstudents foolish enough to have families) at precisely the moment demand is apparently plummeting (which, in aggregate it is not)… But never fear – he has a five point plan. And we all know how well these have traditionally worked for The Conservative Party).” Asia Careers Group SDN BHD - Investing in International Futures AGCAS British Council BUILA Department for Business and Trade Department for Education Jisc Office for Students UCAS UKCISA Universities Scotland Universities UK Universities UK International
