The University of Lincoln has welcomed the news of a review of post-18 education – following an announcement by the Prime Minister in a speech yesterday.
The review will focus on choice, value for money, access and skills provision in post-18 education, with the investigation concluding early next year.
In a statement, a University of Lincoln spokesperson said: “At Lincoln, we are proud of our record on teaching quality, student engagement and graduate employability, as well as our award-winning approach to working with industry to deliver the skills and research innovations our society and economy need.
“A fair and sustainable system of post-18 education funding should help people of all backgrounds achieve their potential and meet the needs of employers.
“Our universities must also have the resources to invest in the world-class facilities, equipment and academic talent that make Britain a world leader in higher education.”
The review will be informed by an independent panel, who will publish a report at ‘an interim stage’.
