Further and Higher Education (Wales) Bill

This White Paper sets out the Welsh Government’s legislative proposals in relation to further education and higher education reform and seeks your views on these proposals.

The proposals for further education are a result of the recent action taken by the Office for National Statistics to reclassify further education colleges as part of central government for the purpose of National Accounts.

The higher education proposals reflect the Programme for Government commitments and the introduction of new higher education funding and student support arrangements.

The proposals include strengthening the learner voice, access arrangements and dispute resolution procedures in higher education.
