@Policy_Connect discussing their latest report on ‘blended learning’. Considering recent pedagogical developments and ongoing discussions re remote delivery for international students, policy makers must ensure equity for all while ensuring our high quality of education

[Helen Atkinson @helen_a23]

Calling all @AGCAS members!

In Dec 2023, the government announced a series of measures impacting international students’ ability to work in the UK after their studies. Tell us how these changes are impacting your international students/employer contacts:

💬 “The way of thinking [regarding policy] has been shifting, and it’s been difficult to navigate.”

On the day it's confirmed global warming has, for the first time, exceeded 1.5C across an entire year, Starmer is ditching his pledge to invest £28bn a year in green energy.

With our abundant renewable resources, Scotland will suffer because of another screeching Labour u-turn.

Name one skill that will change every area of your life:

BREAKING:

A volcano erupts in Iceland for the 3rd time in a year.

The eruption is taking place at the Reykjanes Peninsula

Always a pleasure sharing insights into the student experience, UK international and global, with our members!

[UK Council for International Student Affairs @UKCISA]

Would current international students recommend the UK to a friend? How does Australia and Canada's migration strategy compare to ours?

Iona Murdoch, Policy Officer at UKCISA shares a snapshot of key data and puts this into a global context at #UKCISAConnect @ionamurdoch

I spend a lot of time insisting 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ain’t like Hollywood romanticises it. Then St Andrews ambushes me with this. @OldCourseHotel @TravWriters

Starting my Wednesday at #UKCISAFest with a room full of young changemakers.

Always a privilege to hear the moving stories of international students which celebrate and highlight the work that must be done to improve the student experience!

[Humza Yousaf @HumzaYousaf]

How can this be justified?

What crime have these babies committed?

This is why collective punishment must be called out and condemned.

Let aid in, including fuel. Otherwise, these images should haunt us for the rest of our lives.

A ceasefire is needed and needed now.

[UK Council for International Student Affairs @UKCISA]

This latest report from @LondonHigher and @MiddlesexUni examines:

🔸Why international students come to London
🔸If international students' experiences match their expectations
🔸If international students feel their voice is sufficiently heard in HE governance structures

We strongly believe in their recommendation to ensure that international students have a say in key governance issues, which is reflected in our #WeAreInternational Student Charter.

Huge news!!! An absolutely excellent day. UK joins Horizon Europe under a new bespoke deal https://t.co/5FXYhFiS6C

@harrycanderson Sorry to hear that! As someone trying to find a new place to move into, you can really see the change even since last year. Hope you find somewhere!

[Edgar McGregor @edgarrmcgregor]

Honestly, It is becoming harder to be a climate optimist. What the planet is going through right now is unreal.

Even the most careful and orthodox scientists I know appear on edge.

[Rt Hon Chris Skidmore @CSkidmoreUK]

Some summer reading for anyone thinking that further delaying action on net zero might be a good idea
https://t.co/mXWpauPtBS

[Rt Hon Chris Skidmore @CSkidmoreUK]

Net zero isn’t a crusade.

It has always been a proportionate and pragmatic approach to protecting our environment and economy against vast risks and costs while reducing our emissions in a way that delivers new jobs, future industries and doesn’t leave communities behind.

[The PIE News @ThePIENews]

International students are not "taking seats" from UK students, stakeholders have reiterated, after media outlets have led with stories suggesting otherwise
