Purpose of the consultation
The Children, Young People and Education
Committee conducted an inquiry on the impact of Brexit on Higher and
Further Education.
The Committee considered the Welsh Government’s
approach to preparing for Brexit in relation to the Higher and Further
Education sector in Wales. To inform scrutiny the Committee called for evidence
in respect of the following three broad themes: learner outcomes and
employability, financial sustainability and investment, and research and
innovation funding and collaboration.
Learner Outcomes and
Employability
- Explore the potential challenges to future learner success and employability post-Brexit and what is and could be done to meet these.
- Explore the potential impact on the sector of any loss of the EU ERASMUS+ mobility scheme and understand the opportunities for alternative mobility schemes which currently exist or could conceivably be developed.
Financial Sustainability and Investment Opportunities
- Consider the potential challenges posed by Brexit to the financial sustainability of Further and Higher Education Institutions.
- Investigate the exposure to EU funding, of the future investment plans of Further and Higher Education Institutions and what the opportunities for alternative sources of investment funding are.
Research and Innovation Funding and Collaboration
- Investigate the reliance of Further and Higher Education Institutions on future EU research and innovation funding.
- Explore what will and could be done to safeguard EU research collaborations and networks post-Brexit.
