Value for money performance measures
Strategic objective 4:
‘All students, from all backgrounds, receive value for money.’
We have one strategic outcome under this strategic objective, and one key performance measure (KPM) to help us demonstrate progress against it.
Strategic outcome: higher education delivers value for money for students, graduates, taxpayers and employers, especially in the form of positive student outcomes.
19. Student and key stakeholder perceptions of value for money
‘Considering the costs and benefits of university, do you think it offers good value for money?’
Undergraduate students who answered ‘Yes’:
37.5%
Value for money has no fixed definition – it means different things to different people, and may well shift over time.
Tracking perceptions of the value for money of higher education will allow us to monitor progress without imposing our own definition on students.
