Predictions abound about the effect of Covid-19 on the number of local students who will enrol in higher education in 2020/21. Rarely discussed is the socio-economic backgrounds of these students.

This webinar will explore how such policies and others might help or hinder widening higher education participation from a UK, US, and European perspective.
