The HE Bill
House of Commons Stage: Concerns Remain
This briefing re-visits the questions, summarising our
understanding of the Government’s position in late March and outlining
our continuing concerns. NIACE still believes that the Bill misses a
number of opportunities to create a higher education system that is
more flexible and more responsive to the needs of learners, employers
and society as a whole in the twenty-first century.
The Unique Learner
Number A NIACE Response to the Department for Education and
Skills’ Consultation on the Feasibility of Introducing the Unique Learner
Number.
The HE Bill
Committee Stage: Ending discrimination against older students
At present, certain full-time higher education students
and prospective students are not eligible for a student loan due to
their age. New Clause 3 represents an opportunity to end this unjust
discrimination. This briefing presents the case why Committee members
should press the Government hard.
