We will continue implementing our reforms to regulating equality of opportunity, to tackle risks for students.

We will work to ensure providers are delivering high quality education and good outcomes for students from all backgrounds.

What we will do in 2024-25

We will improve and promote the information available to prospective students for choosing courses and providers.

We will also enable greater choice for students by allocating funding and supporting effective validation arrangements.

What we will do in 2024-25

We expect to publish the results from our recent harassment and sexual misconduct consultation and prevalence survey. We will continue to work closely with stakeholders on these issues as appropriate.

What we will do in 2024-25

We will continue to encourage higher education providers to address mental health among students as a risk to equality of opportunity.

We will ensure that providers understand the scale and nature of mental health issues in higher education and know how best to support their students.
