Question to the Department for Education:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the press release Fairer higher education system for students and taxpayers, published on 24 February, what courses they consider to be of low quality and not leading to a graduate job with a good wage.

The government is consulting openly on the introduction of student number controls to improve outcomes from higher education (HE) for students, society and the economy.

In response to this consultation, the government welcomes views on how we should identify the highest quality HE which offers the best outcomes, and such provision may be prioritised.
