The government has launched new measures to tackle ethnic disparity in higher education, which place a greater focus on outcomes through access and participation plans.
Commenting on the announcement, Chris Millward, director for access and participation at the OfS, said:
‘Where we see lower proportions of ethnic minority students continuing with their studies, achieving the best degree outcomes, or progressing into graduate jobs, we expect universities to have a measurable plan of action to address this.’
The announcement was covered by ITV and The Daily Mail.
