Detail of outcome

We need to make sure funding reaches those experiencing the greatest disadvantage or facing the greatest barriers to a higher education. This call for evidence provided us with a less formal way to gather views to help develop our policy on targeted support.

We received around 250 responses from a wide range of stakeholders. We’ll consider the many suggestions received in any future review of targeted support funding. We won’t be publishing a formal response.

Call for evidence description

We want to give the appropriate level of support to make sure those who have the ability to study at higher education (HE) level can do so. We’ve developed a range of grants to provide extra support to help remove some of the barriers faced by students with disabilities or dependants.

We want your views and information to help us review our financial support, to make sure it remains appropriate and we can target it more effectively.
