Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, whether he has plans to regulate or limit the ability of UK universities to establish satellite campuses in London.
A Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) inquiry into satellite campuses was published in December 2014. In light of this report, tighter controls were introduced for Higher Education Tier 4 sponsors, setting out requirements for sponsorship across multiple sites, and clamping down on inappropriate promotion of work rights. This came into effect from April 2015. The Department continues to work with QAA and the higher education sector to ensure standards are maintained.
