In case you missed it!👇

The Education Sec sends a message that international students are welcome in the UK🤝

"If you're joining us this year, we can't wait to see you in our university towns and cities soon."🌍

Big potential story here (tho note the small print says it’s in a paper going from officials to Ministers with options - I mean of course this is one option, but is it a leading option?)

Tomorrow is A-Level results day and we want to wish everyone who will be receiving their results the best of luck! We hope you get what you've been aiming for, and hopefully we'll see a lot of you at BU in September. #BelongAtBU

It’s a bumper day of OfS regulatory action. There’s a ‘boots on the ground’ inspection, a name change approval, and 3 case reports of consumer protection law.

On the first steps @bphillipsonMP says she will set out in parliament - looking at regulation which in England is Office for Students. Worth notinglabour govt has already "accepted" the resignation of its chair. She says this govt wants to welcome international students

[branwen jeffreys @branwenjeffreys]

On unis @bphillipsonMP "We need to see a sharper focus on the regulation ... to make sure universities are on a firm footing". This suggests new govt thinks the Office for Students has lost sight of one of its core functions

[@[email protected] @dkernohan]

This likely to happen via an announcement in Parliament this week. OfS needs an interim chair, but Phillipson hints at other movement on regulation.
