How we regulate quality and standards

Quality and standards across the UK

The UK Quality Council (UKQC) provides an arena for discussing UK-wide issues related to quality and standards.

UKQC provides sector-led input relating to higher education quality and standards matters that are of shared interest across the UK.

It draws on expertise from across the higher education sector.

Membership includes sector body representatives, academics and students.

As a ‘foundational body’ of the council the OfS actively participates in meetings and informs decisions, but is not a voting member of the council.
