New Government, new start

14 Jul 2024

Working together, universities and the new Labour Government can deliver for Britain. MillionPlus outlines six quick wins the Government could take to support students and boost universities.

MillionPlus calls on the new Government to:

  • Recognise universities as a national asset and engage them as allies, not adversaries, and respect the importance of international students
  • Re-commit to widening participation and introduce a social mobility premium
  • Stabilise higher education finances
  • Work with universities and the Office for Students to deliver genuinely risk-based regulation
  • Recognise that the scope of university outputs requires joined-up working between government departments
  • Maintain funding for BTECs and other established qualifications pending a review
