As students continue to struggle with the high cost of living, we echo @LondonHigher's call for Govt to increase maintenance support and reintroduce grants for poorer students👇

NEW❗️ Opportunity Cost: Access to HE and the cost of living crisis in London. We find that although the cost of living is not causing students to opt out of HE study, it does have an impact on choice – with more students choosing to study locally👇 londonhigher.ac.uk/resource/oppor…

Government can, and should, help too, by addressing the maintenance loan shortfall. We endorse the @suttontrust's proposals here: grants for poorer students and increased overall maintenance, funded through a more progressive loan repayment system [10/11]

It was a pleasure to host this event together with @ETSInsights, looking at select areas of @LondonHigher members' vocational training and how these can help meet both recruitment *and* diversification challenges in the public sector. #BuildingaFairerCity

Yesterday was the latest event in our #PoweringLondon series, looking at #LondonHE’s role in widening access to teaching, policing and social work. If we want to make London a fairer city then graduate entry to these vital professions must become more equitable🙏🏼

Thanks @_CEILUP @UniWestLondon for the invite to this important event. Good to hear HE touched upon – both the role of #LondonHE as a driver of #socialmobility and, as @UniofGreenwich noted in the discussion, the ‘cost of learning’ for HE students as a levelling up challenge

Good discussion this evening on London and levelling up with @UniWestLondon vc and great panellists including @jackwbrown @Joe_Dromey @JonTabbush and @LocalisJoe You don’t level up the country by levelling down our capital
