Looking forward to contributing to @_NNECL's online discussion about policy development around #cep in #HigherEducation on 21st February - a great time to question things like the age cap for financial support and help for CEP who are not care leavers.
With a GE taking place later this year we’re keen to know what widening participation practitioners think policy makers should prioritise for #careexperienced leaners? To start this listening, we’ll be hosting an online discussion on 21 Feb 24.

BTECs are an important route into university in the capital - 42% of black students enter London HE with a BTEC. Now those qualifications are under threat. Email your MP now and ask them to attend the #ProtectStudentChoice debate on Monday 18th.
